Eddie Jones has challenged a bulked-up Teimana Harrison to reignite his England career against Fiji at Twickenham on Saturday, live on Sky Sports 2 HD from 2pm. Harrison has ousted Northampton team-mate Tom Wood at openside and edged out Nathan Hughes to win the third cap of a career that appeared destined for an inglorious end when he was replaced 31 minutes into his most recent appearance.The 24-year-old was hauled off in the third Test against Australia in Sydney due to a lack of physicality, but Jones wants to see him respond against Fiji while Hughes watches on from the bench. England vs Fiji November 19, 2016, 2:00pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass Teimana has gone away after the Australia tour, worked on his game and built himself up a little bit, so this is a great opportunity for him, said Jones.Nathan is a six or eight and while we could play him at seven, our preference is to play him at six and eight.Hes new to Test rugby so to start him at seven would be a big ask. Hell come off the bench in order to get used to Test rugby. England head coach Eddie Jones has hit back at criticism for delaying his team announcement Harrison packs down in a back row that includes No 8 Billy Vunipola, who along with Hughes and Elliot Daly overcame the fitness issues that resulted in Englands team announcement being delayed by 24 hours.World player of the year nominee Vunipola is a vital cog in the Red Rose wheel and Jones was reluctant to leave him out.Billy loves playing. My experience with Tongan players is that they love playing and they want to play, Jones said.If you dont pick them for games, you put them in a situation where they wont perform for you in the next game. Semesa Rokoduguni will win his second England cap against his native Fiji In total there are five changes, one positional, to the side that toppled South Africa 37-21 at Twickenham last Saturday, with Harrisons promotion the only adjustment to the pack.Daly switches from outside centre to left wing, enabling Jonathan Joseph to return in the No 13 jersey. Semesa Rokoduguni makes an appearance on the right wing in place of Marland Yarde and Alex Goode is preferred to Mike Brown at full-back.Rokoduguni, the Aviva Premierships form wing who has served in Afghanistan with the British Army, wins his second cap at the expense of Jonny May and makes his first Test appearance since 2014 as part of a new-look back three. England began their autumn campaign with a convincing win over South Africa May and Brown started against South Africa but have been dropped from the 23 altogether with Henry Slade making a surprise appearance on the bench alongside uncapped lock Charlie Ewels.Jones confirmed that both May and Brown are fit, the latter losing his place in the starting XV for the first time under Jones.Were looking at the chance to increase the depth of the squad. Its a chance for us to see Alex Goode play and to have a look at Roko, Jones said.Elliots on the wing after he played very well for us at 13 last week. Its an opportunity to see what he can do on the left wing.Roko has exceptional running skills. We want to see him with the ball in his hand and running.

With two quick, deft touches, Goetze ended Germanys 24-year wait for another World Cup title with an extra-time winner against Argentina on Sunday -- denying Messi the one title he needs to forever take his place among the games all-time greats. It was the moment of brilliance that ensured Germanys 1-0 victory in a tight and tense final. Goetze, who wasnt born when West Germany beat Argentina in the 1990 final, controlled a cross with his chest in the 113th minute and in one fluid motion volleyed the ball past goalkeeper Sergio Romero and inside the far post from five yards out. It delivered Germany its fourth World Cup title, equal second with Italy on the list of all-time champions and just behind Brazils five. "Its an unbelievable feeling. I dont know how to describe it. You just shoot that goal in, you dont really know whats happening," Goetze said. "And then at the end of the match, having a party with the team, the whole country ... it is for us, a dream come true." At the final whistle, Germany players fell into a pile in a mid-pitch celebration. Messi walked past them with his hands on his hips -- still in the shadow of his compatriot Diego Maradona, who led his country to the 1986 title. The 22-year-old Goetze went on as a substitute for Miroslav Klose near the end of regulation time and his fresh legs made the difference. Andre Schuerrle broke down the left flank, sending his cross into the area, and the Bayern Munich midfielder did the rest with a clinical finish. The goal echoed that of Andres Iniesta four years ago, when the midfielder scored in similar fashion but from the other side of the area to give Spain a 1-0 extra-time win over the Netherlands. It went entirely to script, according to Germany coach Joachim Loew. "I said to Mario Goetze, OK, show to the world that youre better than Messi and you can decide the World Cup. You have all the possibilities to do that," Loew said. "I had a good feeling with him." Germany became the first European team to win a World Cup in the Americas, and the victory ends a string of near misses since winning its last major title at the 1996 European Championship. The team lost the 2002 World Cup final to Brazil, the Euro 2008 final to Spain and was eliminated in the semifinals in both 2006 and 2010. Argentina had not been back in the final since that 1990 loss, and has now been beaten by Germany in the last three World Cups. "This was our chance, and we felt that way. We couldnt do it. We have to lift our heads and suffer the pain," Argentina midfielder Javier Mascherano said. "Obviously, the pain is tremendous." It is Germanys first World Cup title as a unified nation, having won as West Germany in 1954, 1974 and 1990. The Germans faced Argentina in both the 1986 and 11990 finals, during Maradonas heyday.dddddddddddd This time, they were up against Messi, the four-time world player of the year who has set a slew of scoring records in leading Barcelona to every major club title and is widely considered the best player since Maradona. But in the biggest game of his career, Messi came up short. He had one good chance to score when he was sent free in the area just after the halftime break, but sent his shot wide. It was a difficult angle, but still the type of chance he so often converts for Barcelona. Messi threatened intermittently throughout the match, but was effectively smothered by the German defence. His free kick in the 120th minute went well high. Messi, who scored four goals in the group stage but none in the knockout rounds, then had to trudge alone up the stairs of the Maracana Stadium to accept the Golden Ball award for the tournaments best player, shaking hands with German Chancellor Angela Merkel along the way. "At this moment I dont care about this prize -- only lifting the trophy matters," Messi said. "Im hurt for losing the way we did. ... I think we deserved a little better, we had chances. As well as they controlled the ball, we still had the clearest chances." After Messi received his award, the German team made its way up the stairs for captain Philipp Lahm to raise the hallowed 18-carat gold trophy. Until Goetzes winning goal, the game was more notable for top-class defending than creative attacking, but both teams had their share of chances. Gonzalo Higuain fired wide when gifted a chance in a one-on-one with goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, and later had a goal ruled out for offside. Germany defender Benedikt Hoewedes hit the post just before halftime with a header. Germany had entered the game as the favourite after its 7-1 semifinal drubbing of Brazil. But Argentina proved to be an entirely different proposition. "Im very proud of the team. They played a great game against a great team," Argentina coach Alejandro Sabella said. "I salute the players, they made the country proud." After Germanys last win in 1990, then-coach Franz Beckenbauer predicted that a unified Germany would be "unbeatable" in the future. It took 24 years to prove him right but with young players like Goetze, the next wait may not be as long. "We, I think, deserve this trophy," Goetze said. ------ Lineups: Germany: Manuel Neuer; Philipp Lahm, Mats Hummels, Jerome Boateng, Benedikt Hoewedes; Christoph Kramer (Andre Schuerrle, 31), Bastian Schweinsteiger, Toni Kroos, Mesut Ozil (Per Mertesacker, 120), Thomas Mueller; Miroslav Klose (Mario Goetze, 88).
