TOKYO (Reuters) - England will give everything they have to match Argentina's physicality in their World Cup clash on Saturday but they also plan to show something of a stiff upper lip in the face of what they expect to be a fiery and emotional Puma side.

Argentina have been cranking up the passion play for a game they have to win to stay in the competition but England coach Eddie Jones said on Friday that his players would have to keep their cool and avoid being dragged into a heated battle.
