Zach Mercer shines in England U20 Six Nations win over Wales

Bath Rugby's 19-year-old number eight Zach Mercer was hugely influential in England's 27-31 win in the U20 Six Nations on Friday.

Shortly before the interval an important carry by Mercer got an impressive move going that concluded with Harry Randall of Gloucester crossing the try line.

In the 72nd minute though he got a try of his own, and quite a good one it was, too.

Mercer collected a poorly-executed Wales clearance kick and galloped down the left touchline, evading two challenges, before skipping past a third Welshman.

He then offloaded the ball to a teammate, which allowed Wales to regroup, and the move broke down but England kept up the pressure and, after a small ruck, Mercer found himself in possession and he edged his way over the line.
