LOCK Huw Taylor and hooker Jack Singleton have been named in England’s unchanged side to face Ireland in tomorrow’s World Rugby Under 20 Championship final (7pm).

The Worcester Warriors duo along with club mate Andrew Kitchener who is among the replacements are aiming to secure their country’s third world title at the AJ Bell Stadium.

England recorded pool victories against Italy, Scotland as well as Australia before defeating South Africa in the semi-final.

Head coach Martin Haag says it will be a “great occasion” and has urged his side to “deliver at the highest level”.

“We need to execute effectively and do the simple things well,” he said.

“There is a lot of emotion around these games which is why it’s important not to try and do anything differently in our approach. “As always, we are aiming to get to a level of performance that we aspire to and we were very close against South Africa. The challenge for us is how we replicate and then improve on that.”

Haag’s side scored five tries against South Africa in a stunning first 40 minutes of rugby and he says the same players deserve the chance to play against Ireland on Saturday.

“There were some tough calls to make in selection. The performance against South Africa was fantastic and because of that those guys have earned their places for the final game,” he said.

“We were really pleased with the impact off the bench too and are going to need that again in the latter stages of this game against Ireland.”

He has also paid tribute to his squad’s attitude during the tournament and the way they have bonded as a group in such a short space of time.

“The team spirit is fantastic and as a result the group is stronger and tighter,” he added.

“I’ve said it before, the players who are not selected deserve as much credit and recognition as those who are. “Each week those players have given their all to ensure the squad is in the best possible place heading into a game.

“I think the way this group have conducted themselves as young men has been exemplary. Everyone says how polite they are, they have embraced community outreach days, enjoying the opportunity to share their energy and enthusiasm for the game with young people in the area.”
