Rugby union: Try-scoring Ben Foden can't save England from defeat at Twickenham
Jun 4 2009 Chester Chronicle
BEN Foden scored on his first start for England on Saturday but it was not enough to save Martin Johnson’s men from a surprise defeat at Twickenham.
The Barbarians sealed a 33-26 victory at rugby HQ as England’s preparations for the two-Test series with Argentina suffered a blow.
Chester Rugby Club graduate Foden, 23, of Cholmondeley, scored his first England try on the half-hour, muscling over after taking a pass from newcomer Chris Robshaw.
But the Northampton Saints star has been replaced on the right wing for this Saturday’s clash with Argentina at Old Trafford by Mark Cueto.
