Disallowed score was 100% a try, laments disappointed Cueto

MARK CUETO has reflected on the moment England’s dream of making World Cup history drifted into oblivion, claiming: “It was 100% a try.”

And the Sale Sharks wing’s sense of disbelief was only deepened by texters who bombarded his mobile phone while England fought tooth and nail to successfully defend their world title.

Cueto said: “There were about 30 text messages on my phone. I think 29 out of the 30 had ‘robbed’ in the text.”
