Johnson not taking Wales for granted

ENGLAND will go into Sunday’s World Cup quarter-final against Wales at Suncorp Stadium with skipper Martin Johnson insisting: “We are taking nothing for granted.”

A Welsh victory would rank as one of the greatest World Cup upsets, given England's official status as the number one team on planet rugby.

Johnson and company have won 19 of their last 20 Tests, beating among others, New Zealand (twice), Australia (twice), South Africa (twice), France (twice) and Wales three times.
