Eddie Jones claims his team were spied on during training

England Coach Eddie Jones has claimed his team were spied on during a training session ahead of their Rugby World Cup semifinal match against New Zealand.

Jones said someone filmed the team from an apartment block overlooking their training ground in Tokyo.

But he did not directly accuse the All Blacks of spying. 

He later admitted he had spied on rival teams before - but had not done so since 2001 because there was no value to it anymore.

At a news conference, Jones went into his usual pre-match attack mode, insisting that "pressure is chasing the All Blacks down the street". 

The All Blacks will face England at 8pm this Saturday in the first semifinal while Wales will take on South Africa at 9pm this Sunday in the second semifinal.
