Eddie Jones compares England star to Alexis Sánchez after creative masterclass

Eddie Jones believes he’s found their Alexis Sanchez in Danny Care after his impact guided England to a 30-6 win against the Wallabies at Twickenham.

Care used his boot to set-up touch downs for Jonathan Joseph and Jonny May before crossing himself deep into stoppage-time.

“Danny brought energy, vibrancy and a bit of creativity,” Jones told BBC Radio 5 live’s Sportsweek programme.

“Ben Youngs did a great job for us, but Danny came on at the right time, saw space behind and executed brilliantly.

“He was like a little Sanchez playing for Arsenal, here there and everywhere looking for opportunities. He was very creative.”

Care touched down in the corner of Twickenham where his wife Jodie and son Blake were watching and celebrated the highlight of his action-packed cameo by kicking the ball into the stands.
