Jamie George traveled to Australia to join the British and Irish Lions after witnessing England's dramatic win against Argentina. England faced challenges, losing George shortly before the match, which affected their lineout performance. However, Jack van Poortvliet's last-minute try secured a narrow victory. George Ford emerged as a key player, showcasing leadership and supporting the team through difficulties. The win marked England's sixth consecutive victory, demonstrating their resilience and growth under Borthwick's leadership, as well as improved teamwork and execution in critical moments.
We had quite a few opportunities in the Argentina 22 and we could not execute, but I am proud of the boys and their effort.
To go back-to-back in consecutive weeks against a brilliant team in Argentina is a great effort. I like our fight, togetherness, the way we are playing for each other.
This is now England's sixth successive win, their best run of results under Borthwick and their longest unbeaten sequence since 2020.
Ford kept the show on the road. The fly-half had returned with good memories of his last visit, a 23-point man of the match display in 2017.
