Head coach rues ‘elementary’ mistakes in defeat to Pumas and vows his side will respond next weekend against Japan
England’s autumn campaign got off to the worst possible start as Eddie Jones’ side suffered a demoralising loss to Argentina at Twickenham.
Jones admits his side is “under the pump” after falling to yet another defeat, their fifth this year, in front of a subdued home crowd.
The hosts led 16-12 early in the second half but conceded two tries as Argentina claimed a first win against England for the first time since 2009.
England take on Japan next week but then face tough assignments against New Zealand and South Africa as the clock ticks towards next year’s World Cup.
