England Suffers Key Losses for Clash Against Argentina
England faces significant challenges for Sunday’s crucial match against Argentina at Allianz Stadium, losing key players due to injury.
Coach Steve Borthwick laments the losses after the 33-19 victory over New Zealand, a match that left its mark on the team.
Hooker Jamie George and center Ollie Lawrence are suffering from hamstring problems, while winger Tom Roebuck has a foot injury. All were injured in the match against the All Blacks.

In addition to these absences are those of Ollie Chessum and Tommy Freeman, who were already ruled out due to foot and hamstring injuries, respectively. This significantly reduces England’s selection options.
Noah Caluori, a teenage sensation, has been called up to the training squad as cover for the wing position. In addition, the forwards have been reinforced with the addition of hooker Jamie Blamire and lock Charlie Ewels.Jamie George se perderá el enfrentamiento de Inglaterra contra Argentina en el Allianz Stadium.Fullback Freddie Steward, who left the match against New Zealand due to a possible concussion, has been cleared to play on Sunday.
George’s injury opens the door for Theo Dan to make his first appearance in the tournament, with Luke Cowan-Dickie as the main hooker.
Lawrence’s absence is a hard blow, but the return of Elliot Daly, recovered from a fractured forearm, offers a high-level solution for England.
Henry Arundell and Cadan Murley will compete for the wing position left by Roebuck, with the match against Argentina possibly too soon for Caluori’s debut.
Borthwick is scheduled to announce his team on Friday, but could bring the decision forward to Wednesday.
