Steve Borthwick said England had taken some “positive small steps” by beating Italy on Sunday, before expressing concerns over how the Azzurri were able to mount a second-half recovery.
But the visitors fought back after the break and it was not until England replacement back Henry Arundell went over for a try nine minutes from time that victory was assured.England, however, had avoided a repeat of the Scotland game, where they squandered an eight-point lead in the second half. The former England captain added: “We conceded some opportunities late in the game and we’ll have a good look why because that’s happened for two weeks running now.
“They know their selection, they have caps under their belts, they’re arriving at the World Cup with the right number of caps.
