Stuart Lancaster says his team put in a great shift tonight, obviously the questions are about his job, but he says it is not up to him and it’s not all about him.
He came away with a win and his experimentative side worked well for most of the match.

Uruguayan coach Pablo Lemoine says this world cup was a great learning experience, “It was a great experience. It was perfect”. He mentioned the need to consistently play against strong rugby nations.

England were pretty convincing in the end as expected but slow and sloppy in some parts. Uruguay showed some heart but very poor execution. They did keep scrambling in defence to their credit.
