The 21-year-old needed just five minutes to get himself a try and ensured he celebrated apropriately.

Taking a leaf out of Chelsea and England football ace Cole Palmer‘s book, Cunningham-South rubbed his arms to mimic the footballer’s “cold” celebration.

The try was certainly deserving of a special celebration as sequence of seven delightful passes opened up the flank for Cunningham-South to dive down and put some points on the board.

Fans were loving the try and loads of them were impressed by the celebration too.

On social media one fan wrote: “Loving the fact that Cunningham-South hit the ‘Cole Palmer’ celebration after his try. The celebration has officially landed in Rugby”.

While another added: “What a try by England. Beautiful handling and passing. Brilliant by Cunningham-South and a nice celly there, Cole Palmer’s influence is immense”.

Things got even better for Cunningham-South when he scored another try just a few minutes later to widen England’s lead.

Unbelievably, despite Palmer becoming synonymous with the celebration, there’s debate around who the originator actually is.

The celebration was actually started by Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers.

And Palmer even admitted that he only started doing the celebration as a nod to his former Manchester City academy teammate.

Speaking in December last year, Palmer said: “My boy Morgs did one for Middlesbrough, so I told him I’d do it too if I scored.”

While Rogers opened up on the celebration theft when speaking to TNT Sports earlier this season.

Probed on if it was true that Palmer nicked his moves, he said: “Yeah, it’s true. Cheeky boy, isn’t he? He’s run with it.

“I’ll let him have it – he’s scored 40 goals or something stupid so I can’t really argue with that, can I?”
