England coach John Mitchell expressed that his team’s victory in the Rugby World Cup represents a significant “closure”. The Red Roses achieved a resounding victory over Canada with a score of 33-13 at Twickenham Stadium on Saturday, marking a milestone three years after their painful defeat in the 2022 final against New Zealand. Before their audience, England demonstrated their superiority, securing their third World Cup crown. Mitchell, who was recognized as Coach of the Year by World Rugby after the final whistle, maintains an impeccable record without knowing defeat as coach of the Red Roses.
In his post-match statements, Mitchell emphasized the importance of this victory.It’s something big. Very big. Being part of a World Cup-winning team is huge. Sometimes you look back and think ‘wow’, certain tournaments elude you.
