Head coach John Mitchell believes England's thrilling draw with Canada will inspire "greater things to come" from the world champions despite the result ending their record-breaking winning streak.
主教练约翰·米切尔相信英格兰队与加拿大队的激动人心的平局将激励世界冠军队“做出更伟大的事情”,尽管结果结束了他们破纪录的连胜。
England had won their past 39 Tests before Saturday's fixture.
在周六的比赛之前,英格兰队已经赢得了过去 39 场测试赛的胜利。
Canada, who had lost their 13 previous meetings with the Red Roses on English soil, held England to a 26-26 draw in a nail-biting, physical battle at Exeter's Sandy Park.
加拿大队之前在英国本土与红玫瑰队交手13次都输了,但在埃克塞特桑迪公园进行的一场激烈的身体对抗中,加拿大队以26-26战平英格兰队。
It was only the second game domestically or internationally for England's players this season and, for Mitchell, one result is not justification to tear up the playbook.
这只是英格兰球员本赛季在国内或国际比赛中的第二场比赛,对于米切尔来说,一个结果并不能成为撕毁战术手册的理由。
Instead, he views it as a building block towards future success.
相反,他将其视为未来成功的基石。
"It was just a matter of scoring across the white line," Mitchell said. "We were applying huge pressure. We just didn't convert."
“这只是越过白线得分的问题,”米切尔说。 “我们施加了巨大的压力。 我们只是没有转变。”
Avoiding defeat means the Red Roses have extended their unbeaten run to 40 matches, a record they will hope to extend with WXV Global Series games against New Zealand, two more fixtures against Canada and another against the United States still to come.
避免失利意味着红玫瑰队已将不败纪录延长至 40 场,他们希望通过 WXV 全球系列赛对阵新西兰的比赛、另外两场对阵加拿大的比赛以及另一场对阵美国的比赛来延续这一纪录。

I'm very patient because we're just starting and we're still alive in this Test series. "I'm a realist.
我非常有耐心,因为我们才刚刚开始,而且我们仍然在这个测试系列中。 “我是一个现实主义者。
There will be greater things come as a result of this. There's a greater purpose and one Test match is not going to take us away from our purpose." For the opening 10 minutes, the match followed the script of last year's World Cup final between the two sides, with Canada breaking the deadlock and England immediately hitting back.
由此,将会有更伟大的事情发生。 我们有一个更伟大的目标,一场测试赛不会让我们偏离我们的目标。” 开场10分钟,双方的比赛延续了去年世界杯决赛的剧本,加拿大队打破僵局,英格兰队立即反击。
But unlike last September, when they roared on to win 33-13, the Red Roses could not maintain control, with the two teams never separated by more than one try and England unable to convert 20 minutes of sustained pressure into the crucial score.
但与去年9月33-13大胜时不同的是,红玫瑰队无法保持控制,两队的分差从未超过一球,英格兰队无法将20分钟的持续压力转化为关键比分。
While acknowledging England would have to review their "game management", captain Meg Jones hailed the spectacle the two sides delivered.
虽然承认英格兰队必须重新审视他们的“比赛管理”,但队长梅格·琼斯还是对双方所呈现的精彩场面表示赞赏。
"It was definitely tit for tat and definitely a game of momentum swinging," said centre Jones.
“这绝对是一场针锋相对的比赛,绝对是一场势头摇摆的比赛,”中锋琼斯说。
"It was two good teams going at each other. "It was an amazing contest and competitive as we imagined.
“这是两支优秀的球队互相争斗。 “这是一场精彩的比赛,正如我们想象的那样,竞争激烈。
This is the first Test. We get another two shots at it [against Canada]." Echoing Jones' defiance before October trips to Toronto and Ottawa, Mitchell added: "We're in a Test series. It's 1-1. That's it."
这是第一个测试。 我们(对阵加拿大)还有两次机会。” 米切尔回应了琼斯在 10 月份前往多伦多和渥太华之前的反抗,他补充道:“我们正在进行测试系列赛。比分是 1-1。就是这样。”
England's 39-game winning run started under former head coach Simon Middleton, who, after the World Cup final defeat in 2022, led the Red Roses to a Women's Six Nations Grand Slam in 2023.
英格兰队的 39 场连胜始于前主教练西蒙·米德尔顿 (Simon Middleton) 的带领下,他在 2022 年世界杯决赛失利后,带领红玫瑰队在 2023 年夺得女子六国大满贯。
Mitchell then took charge midway through the 2023 WXV1 campaign and had won every game until this one.
米切尔随后在 2023 年 WXV1 赛季中途接掌球队,并赢得了本场比赛之前的每一场比赛。
England beat Scotland in the World Cup quarter-finals last September to claim their 31st straight Test win, surpassing their own record winning streak across both men's and women's international rugby union, which was set in 2022.
去年 9 月,英格兰在世界杯四分之一决赛中击败苏格兰,取得了测试赛的 31 连胜,超越了他们在 2022 年创下的男女国际橄榄球联盟连胜纪录。
World Cup glory, another Women's Six Nations title and victory over Australia last weekend extended that record further.
世界杯的荣耀、又一个女子六国赛冠军以及上周末对澳大利亚队的胜利进一步扩大了这一纪录。
"It's not necessarily something we speak about as a group; it's something that's just been there," Jones said of the winning run.
“这不一定是我们作为一个团队谈论的事情;这是刚刚存在的事情,”琼斯谈到连胜时说道。
"We're very process-driven, so the outcome tends to look after itself."
“我们非常注重流程,因此结果往往会自然而然地发生。”
