"F*****g embarrassment!" England rugby fan turns on Twickenham crowd after Scotland defeat

An incandescent England fan went on a foul-mouthed tirade after Steve Borthwick's side lost to Scotland in round one.

The victory didn't come easily however, as the two sides played out a classic in the Calcutta Cup. From Duhan van der Merwe's wonder try to Marcus Smith's inch-perfect cross-field kick, it was a magnificent spectacle.

The viral clip, which has picked up 200,000 views, takes place outside Twickenham Stadium after the match. RugbyPass interviewed fans for their reaction, and one England spectator went in on the home crowd.

"England at home or was it Scotland at home? It was a f*****g embarrassment. How can Scotland out sing you at home? It's a f*****g embarrassment.

"All they do is sit there, do nothing. How can you get outsung at home? It's a f*****g joke.

"The performance wasn't bad. First of all - Manu Tuilagi - why is he not playing? The worst thing about England today, it's been the same problem for the last 10 years. You sit there, and nobody screams anything.

"I sit there and I go 'Come on England!', screaming for my country. You pay so much money. These people sit there and they don't say anything.

"I got shouted at today by the people in front of me because I was screaming at them (England). Are you joking? I'm here to support my country and people are going "Can you quiet down please?'

"Are you taking the p***? You pay all this money, I've paid over £100 today to support my f*****g country and they go 'Oh well, you're being so rude', are you f*****g taking the p***? I got called a racist because I shouted at old white men sat there going (holds mouth agape), where's 'Come on England'?

"Swing Low, I go 'Come on, Swing Low!' and there's nothing. It's a joke.

"Scotland outsung England in Twickenham today and every match England get outsung because it's old people who just sit there and go 'Oh, we're losing!', where is the support? Where is the passion? England fans just sit there and they don't say anything. It's a disgrace."
