Best Answer

the English made a vital mistake of not defending there flanks, William managed his troops to get around the English, this worked. The English was completely surrounded, then the french archers came into play. William was killed by the archers, a arrow went right through his left eye and got killed. then the English lost morale and surrendered, this was not sucsessfull, the french killed them all.

sorry i made a mistake lol!

i didnt read the question properly and William didnt get killed =)

in the battle they tried to get over the bridge so the opents went under the bridge and when they crossed
