KOBE - Japan’s stunning World Cup victory over Ireland did not register as a huge surprise for Steve Borthwick and the England forwards coach said on Sunday the hosts have grown to such an extent they go into games against the elite sides believing they can win.
While their famous win over the Springboks in England was like a bolt from the blue Saturday’s result did not carry the same shock value, said Borthwick, who was on Eddie Jones’s coaching staff with Japan from 2012 to 2015. “You have seen the results they have had in the last few years and they have jumped up to their highest ranking.”
