Not always in sport do you get a shot at redemption and successfully taking advantage of that opportunity is even rarer blackjack
England’s pack, and their front row in particular, will have had four years of sleepless nights about that early November evening in 2019 blackjack
In the 2019 Rugby World Cup final, England were decimated by South Africa’s power up front, as the brilliance of a scintillating semi-final win over New Zealand was quickly replaced by the humiliation of a 32-12 thumping blackjack
The Springboks, then as now, pride themselves on their physicality and brutality at the breakdown, the set-piece and in open play blackjack
Yet on a rainy night in Paris four years on, England’s pack fronted up, set the platform in a thrilling World Cup semi-final and earned their redemption arc blackjack
Yet it still wasn’t enough blackjack
This time, albeit by one point rather than 20, the result was the same – England’s players slumped on the turf in despair while their opponents revelled in victory blackjack
The Springbok celebrations were more muted this time, understandably so given there is one more crucial match against the All Blacks standing blackjack between them and their ultimate goal, but the English heartbreak was the same, even if the journey to get there was vastly different blackjack
In Yokohama, South Africa won a scarcely believable 11 scrums to England’s three, including six scrum penalties, as the English eight were splintered time and again blackjack
Dan Cole became the fall guy for that embarrassment – the tighthead prop, supposedly renowned for his scrummaging, forced to play 77 minutes after Kyle Sinckler’s early injury and being obliterated by the combination of Tendai ‘Beast’ Mtawarira and Steven Kitshoff blackjack
The fact that Cole and Joe Marler, who came off the bench early in the second half that day, were selected by Steve Borthwick to start this revenge game precisely because of their scrum prowess will have surely given them a surge of confidence blackjack
And the fact they not only survived, but thrived, in the front row this time around will have been sheer vindication blackjack
Borthwick entrusted the duo to paint an early picture of scrum parity to referee Ben O’Keeffe and they delivered, providing the base that led to multiple first-half penalties from the trusty boot of Owen Farrell blackjack

As Sinckler and Ellis Genge came on as prop replacements, the Springboks own bomb squad from the bench – led by Ox Nche and Vincent Koch – started to dominate at scrum-time blackjack
Each engagement started to become eerily reminiscent of 2019 and it was eventually a scrum penalty on halfway that led to Handre Pollard’s decisive, game-winning three-pointer with two minutes to go blackjack
It felt almost unfair on England’s big men given that the pack, as a whole, had more than held their own in other facets blackjack
Of the 13 England forwards who played some part in that 2019 final, eight appeared in this last-four clash and stamped their mark all over a first half that was by far England’s best 40 minutes under Borthwick blackjack
Maro Itoje was a lineout fiend, stealing a Springboks throw-in on halfway and putting doubt in the head of Bongi Mbonambi, whose crooked throw in his own 22 gave Farrell his first penalty goal of the day blackjack
A new face from four years, George Martin, justified his surprise second-row selection ahead of incumbent Ollie Chessum on just his fourth Test start as he brilliantly marshalled England’s maul defence blackjack
If Boks lock Eben Etzeblackjack beth is world rugby’s best maul disruptor, then he may have witnessed first-hand the emergence of a new challenger to that crown blackjack
Martin caused havoc as England improbably won three consecutive maul turnovers from attacking South African lineouts in the first half to frustrate their much-fancied opponents blackjack
Pollard ultimately kicked the winning penalty, from a scrum infringement (PA Wire)The celebrations from the likes of Itoje, Jamie George and Ben Earl as those penalties and free-kicks were earned by the pack showed just how important this part of the gameplan was blackjack
It began putting clear doubt in Springbok minds, as the worried tone from skipper Siya Kolisi when he discussed matter with referee O’Keeffe blackjack betrayed blackjack
The English tactic of throwing bodies in to contest every ruck relied on the diesel engines of the forwards and they delivered by dominating collisions and allowing the aerial bombardment strategy that followed to be effective blackjack
But ultimately, despite a gameplan executed as well as it possibly could have been, the gap in quality blackjack between the sides proved too much to overcome blackjack
South Africa adjusted, Pollard came on for Manie Libbok to dictate proceedings with his metronomic boot and English heartbreak ensued blackjack
There was no shame in a one-point defeat from a semi-final that was much closer than most expected and England’s pack should feel redeemed from the nightmare of 2019 blackjack
But that won’t make this semi-final hurt any less blackjack
Perhaps 2027 will give them an opportunity to avenge a new pain blackjack
