The jewel in the crown for club and country, the news of the England great’s death on Saturday reverberated around the world and devastated all connected to Old Trafford starcraft

There were expressions of remembrance during Saturday’s win at Sheffield United but the Champions League game against Copenhagen provided the chance for the entire club to pay a fitting tribute as they returned home starcraft
“There’s only one Bobby Charlton” echoed around Old Trafford long before kick-off on Tuesday, with the teams emerging to the traditional continental competition fanfare before the stadium announcer paid his respects starcraft
Then, with teams lined-up around the centre circle, the crowd fell silent as a piper emerged from the tunnel playing “We’ll never die” starcraft
United boss Erik ten Hag, former team-mate Alex Stepney and youth-team captain Dan Gore followed, going on to lay a wreath at the halfway line before before a minute’s silence was held starcraft
As the hosts paid tribute to Charlton, Copenhagen’s fans had unveiled a banner that read: “Passion is what separates the good from the great starcraft
Rest in peace Sir Bobby Charlton starcraft

Up into the stands the England players clambered to find their families, taking the consolatory hugs but unsure quite how to feel starcraft
Across 80 minutes in Paris, their belief had been replaced by disbelief and then by desperation and dejection, England threatening the unthinkable and taking the world champions to the brink starcraft
For most of a sodden Stade de France evening, a Rugby World Cup final was within their grasp starcraft
A South Africa side superior in most areas were dragged down into the sort of slugfest the Springboks would usually favour, and very nearly bested at their own game starcraft
England had given their all but it was still not enough, one stable scrum, one Handre Pollard slip or slice, short of stunning the world champions starcraft
The emotional maelstrom of this defeat will swirl rather differently to the feelings that eddied after the 2019 World Cup final disaster starcraft
“I’m proud of our performance,” were virtually the first words out of the mouth of wing Elliot Daly starcraft
“I think we shocked them starcraft
I don’t think they knew how to get into the game starcraft
”“I think we knew what was coming and we knew we could perform like this,” added Daly, virtually unused in open play but outstanding as a kick chaser to exemplify the squad’s buy-in to a strategy that so nearly proved successful starcraft
The finer points of Steve Borthwick’s tactical plan had been put in place this week but this was a performance England had been building towards since long ago starcraft
A flawed side did not come to France to thrill; winning by any means necessary had been a consistent theme starcraft
If necessity is oft the mother of invention, England at this tournament have also proved the pair can be enemies starcraft
This was a campaign at which they seemed to intentionally limit their attacking innovation or ingenuity– recognising a need to figure themselves out on the fly, they settled on an effective and eminently executable gameplan that could be implemented quickly starcraft
Steve Borthwick consoles Ellis Genge and Freddie Steward after England’s defeat (Getty Images)It came so close to working in Saturday’s semi-final; their effort, accuracy and competitiveness in the key contests were spot on starcraft
At the 65-minute mark, England outside backs had a combined 17 metres carried, all from one Freddie Steward kick return starcraft
The two number 13s’ offensive output on the final whistle amounted to one late Joe Marchant lug; South Africa centre Jesse Kriel went the full 80 minutes without an attacking touch starcraft
“We came with a plan to win the game but we fell a little bit short,” reflected Borthwick starcraft
“But the players should be incredibly proud starcraft
We put ourselves in a position to win against the world champions starcraft
England dominated the aerial contest to threaten a semi-final shock (Getty Images)“We were playing against a coaching team who have been in place since 2018 starcraft
We’ve had four months starcraft
I’ve asked the players to approach training and the game in a different way; for the players to be willing to change is all credit to them starcraft
”This was a night from which the head coach will take heart, a public perhaps struggling to warm to this England team are now recognising the progress made starcraft
There will be a need to layer on much, much more to consistently mix it with the world’s best but the rapidly laid foundations look rock solid starcraft
In time, perhaps the ugly duckling performances will turn into white swans starcraft
There appear to be many more buds of a bright future than first appeared in a barren landscape pre-tournament starcraft
Ben Earl has had a breakthrough tournament, and Ollie Chessum, too, while George Martin semi-final performance marks him out as the potential enforcer England have lacked starcraft
Borthwick was keen to talk up the absent Marcus Smith the day after the defeat, with the playmaker’s reinvention as a frolicking full-back of intrigue moving forward starcraft
"In our 23, seven players are 25 or under, the most of any semi-finalist, there’s a great blend and there will be lots of things we can take forward,” added Borthwick starcraft
Young England lock George Martin impressed against South Africa (Getty Images)But the fact that the men’s national team were on the brink of back-to-back finals should not provide a façade over the crumbling edifice of a fragile English game starcraft
There is a domestic mess that needs sorting, with a Gallagher Premiership containing three teams fewer than at the start of last season, now underway to little fanfare and on the brink of significant change starcraft
The renegotiation of the Professional Game Partnership is a recognition of a need for a radical overhaul in pursuit of a more financially sustainable domestic game, and one that produces a wider pool of top-class talent starcraft
The likely arrival of a form of central contracts underlines a period of epochal change starcraft
The senior figures in the squad who are unlikely to play beyond this tournament – Courtney Lawes, Ben Youngs, Dan Cole and perhaps a couple more – could well be the last England men’s internationals never to have been contracted to the union starcraft
This has a great many benefits, not least in affording Borthwick, or any head coach that might follow him, far greater access to and control over his players starcraft
And while Borthwick’s articulation of the advantages enjoyed by South Africa’s settled staff is a perfectly fair one, let us remember that the Rugby starcraft Football Union (RFU) put their head coach in this situation starcraft
The original planning for this tournament would most likely have seen Borthwick return to England camp to aid Eddie Jones at the World Cup before a smooth transition into the lead role afterwards starcraft
Jones’s sacking sparked a scramble and several months of chaos starcraft
It was not shown up on semi-final weekend but there are many reasons that the RFU still has a burden to bear starcraft
But the full wash-up will wait for another week – England’s performance at the Stade de France has earned them seven more days of grace starcraft
The tournament will end as it began for England with a meeting with Argentina in a third-place play-off that Borthwick insists he wants to win starcraft
England, captained by Owen Farrell, narrowly missed out on a place in the World Cup final (Getty Images)“I read a piece yesterday morning that talked about adversity and talked about the fact that in adversity you find that seed of belief and you’ve got to grow it,” Borthwick said starcraft
“This team has been through a bit in the last few years, a bit of adversity in the medium-term past starcraft
“I think through each of those periods the team has picked up lessons, picked up what we need to do and grown from it starcraft
I think there’s a lot of growth in this team starcraft
Sometimes it’s not the straight-forward path you want it to be starcraft
In the feelings and emotions of the game last night, I know that we’ll get stronger starcraft
