England ready for Wales clash
England U20 captain Charlie Ewels believes his team are a much stronger outfit to the one which lost to Wales in the U20 Six Nations earlier this year.
The two countries meet this weekend after a win for England over a Japan and a loss for Wales to France in the opening set of games.
England showed plenty of attacking intent against the Japanese, scoring nine tries in total, pleasing their captain despite a strong fightback from Japan in the second half.
As for Wales, Ewels’ opinion is that England have learned from their mistakes and will look to put in a strong performance this Saturday in Calvisano.
"We're a different side to what we were back then. We talk about building through competitions and we built through that Six Nations,” said the Bath lock.
"Hopefully we've kicked on from where we finished against France in the last game of that tournament and we are a better side again.
"Both teams have had more time together but we definitely want to put that result right. It wasn't a good way to start the Six Nations so hopefully we can put a performance in."
