Emotional words from assistant coach Anthony Barry, nearly in tears, as he spoke about his pride in that England performance.
💬 “No frustration, I’m a little bit emotional. I can’t find the words to describe how proud I am of these players, playing a game with broken hearts. I see 11 lads out on the field with broken hearts. What fight.
“They can build a performance like that just through the pride of playing for England. The team spirit we have built the last seven weeks has been a privilege to watch. The cynics will say it’s too late but that’s against world class oppoents. That 45 minutes, I’m so proud of the boys and there’s 45 minutes to go.
“The game’s not done but in isolation I’m proud of the team and I hope everyone back home is as well.”
