Elvis Kitenge-Fuki started for England Under-18s on Tuesday as they ended their summer tour with a 39-14 defeat to host nation South Africa.

The Newcastle Falcons loose-head played the first half of the International Series clash in Paarl, with his team trailing 17-7 when he departed at the interval.

Kitenge-Fuki had previously featured from the bench in the comeback victory over Georgia and their opening-day loss to Ireland – a game which saw captain and fellow Falcon Patrick Hogg picking up a knee injury which ended his own involvement.
