England v Japan

Joe Cokanasiga made a huge impact on his international debut against Japan with an impressive break in the third minute, offloading to England teammate Jamie George to set up the first try of the afternoon in front of a capacity Twickenham crowd. The supporters’ choice for Man of the Match later went on to score England’s third try in their 35-15 victory over Japan, with England Head Coach Eddie Jones singing Cokanasiga’s praises after the final whistle.

Teammates Zach Mercer, Charlie Ewels and Sam Underhill also put in huge efforts to help England come back from a 10-15 deficit at halftime to secure the victory over the visitors. Ewels, who played his first full game for England, was particularly impressive defensively and was a noticeable threat in the lineout.

Scotland v South Africa

Francois Louw was in action for South Africa as they narrowly defeated Scotland 26-20 at Murrayfield. Louw came off the bench in the 66^th minute to replace captain Siya Kolisi, and went on to make three carries and a tackle before the final whistle.
