England Player Ratings: South Africa (World Cup Final)

England suffered World Cup Final heartbreak on Saturday after a 32-12 defeat to South Africa. Eddie Jones’ side, who were the slight favourites prior to the meeting, started slowly and eventually found themselves 12-6 down at the interval thanks to the boot of Handre Pollard. Owen Farrell’s penalties kept England in contention, however, Makazole Mapimpi’s try 15 minutes from time increased the Springboks’ lead. Cheslin Kolbe then sealed South Africa’s third triumph on the world stage with a brilliant individual try. Here’s how we rated Jones’ men following the disappointing final in Japan.
