Twickenham crowd roar home side to famous victory in Steve Borthwick’s first match as head coach

Tries from Jamie George, Ollie Chessum and Henry Arundell seal famous victory

England rallied from a 12-point deficit to beat South Africa 27-13 in Steve Borthwick’s first match as head coach.

The Springboks made a fast start when Kurt-Lee Arendse kicked a penalty before Damian Willemse crossed for the opening try after a slick move by the visitors.

However, England hit back with a try from Jamie George just before half-time to reduce the deficit to 13-8 at the break.

The Red Roses continued to improve after the break and drew level when Ollie Chessum crashed over from close range.

And they sealed a famous victory when Henry Arundell went over in the corner with 10 minutes remaining.

The victory gives Borthwick a winning start to his tenure as head coach and will give England confidence ahead of the Six Nations Championship, which begins next month.
