England Rugby in disarray after pre-match incident between Eddie Jones and Jonny May

England rugby have a huge clash today in Cardiff as they face off against Wayne Pivac’s Wales side.

The men in red are fighting it out for a triple crown victory as just one of two sides who remain undefeated in the tournament.

There was one moment in the pre-match warm-up that almost slipped under the radar between the England rugby head coach and Gloucester winger Jonny May.

After exchanging penalties in the opening quarter, it was Wales who struck the first hammer blow with a try from Cardiff Blues winger Josh Adams.

There was some controversy around whether this cross kick try should have stood when there were water carriers on the pitch.

Farrell is right. Same thing happened in the summer. Can’t restart play when water carriers are on the pitch. #WALENG

Steady, Eddie! 🤕😂

Safe to say the England boss and Jonny May weren’t expecting that coming together. 😬#bbcrugby #sixnations #WALvENG pic.twitter.com/bYbcRGjqTA

The England winger didn’t look too shaken during the first half but could this coming together have effected the player’s focus in the opening forty minutes of the clash?

There was even more controversy with Wales’ second try after an apparent knock on from Louis Rees-Zammit.

The sides have gone into half time with the scores at 17-14.
