Steve Borthwick admitted England are “hurting” after completing their worst-ever Six Nations following a last-gasp 48-46 defeat by France in Paris.

England finally ignited by running in six tries and it was only a Thomas Ramos penalty three minutes into a chaotic period of overtime which denied them victory after Tommy Freeman had crossed late on.
