Dom Young is loving every minute of his fledging England career as he continues to set the World Cup alight.
The 21-year-old Yorkshireman was a late call-up by England after switching his allegiance from World Cup debutants Jamaica but has seized his opportunity to such an extent that he has already been compared with all-time great winger Martin Offiah.
Young equalled England’s joint record for tries in a match held by Offiah when he went over for the fourth time in Saturday’s record 94-4 win over Greece at Bramall Lane to move top of the standings.
All Young’s tries came before half-time when he was on course to break the World Cup record of six set by Australia’s Valentine Holmes against Fiji in 2017, but he failed to get on the scoreboard in the second half.
‘I was a little disappointed about that, the ball didn’t come my way like it did in the first half, but that’s alright, I’ll take four,’ he said.
