South Africa’s Springboks beat England 45-21 in Johannesburg. The match saw seven tries from the hosts, with their backs breaking through early against England’s struggling defense. England started the Nations Championship with a convincing loss.
Rassie Erasmus commented after the game. He divided Springboks into separate groups and chose the ones who pursue big wins. Steve Borthwick now faces more questions as England’s poor start adds pressure on his team.
