International round-up: Saints ace Manny 'grateful' after making England debut
Manny Iyogun posted the word 'grateful' alongside some smiling snaps on social media after making his England debut on Saturday.
The Saints prop came off the bench in the 49th minute in the Red Rose's 31-24 win against Argentina in Santiago del Estero.
Iyogun didn't have it all his own way on the day as he was shown a yellow card four minutes from time, but he was still able to celebrate as England got the job done in their final summer clash of the Nations Championship.
Alex Coles and Henry Pollock were also sin-binned against Argentina, while Tommy Freeman grabbed a third-minute try, which was superbly engineered by Fin Smith.
It was certainly an eventful encounter for the Saints stars as they signed off from a long season with a welcome win, which was England's second in three games this summer.
Coles had a huge impact on the victory as he racked up an eye-watering 35 tackles despite having to spend 10 of his 80 minutes in the sin bin.
And the Saints players will now be looking forward to a well-earned break before they return to Franklin's Gardens for pre-season preparations in late August.
Elsewhere, Danilo Fischetti came off the bench for Italy in their 57-10 defeat to Australia in Perth.
New Saints wing Malik Faissal was not involved in that match, having made his Italy debut earlier in the summer.
Rory Hutchinson wasn't involved in Scotland's 33-17 win against Fiji in Edinburgh.
But there were several Saints players in action for England Under-20s as they suffered a 41-26 defeat to New Zealand Under-20s in the third place play-off of the World Rugby Junior World Championship.
Saints forward Aiden Ainsworth-Cave was the England captain, while Oliver Scola, Jack Lewis, Jonny Weimann and Hugh Shields also started and Sonny Tonga'uiha came off the bench.
