Rugby World Cup

The semi-finals of this tournament will be held today near Paris. The French women's team will face Canada and England confront Ireland. The southern hemisphere teams have all been eliminated - can't imagine that in the men's version. The France match will be shown live this evening on France 2 TV. Fans, both men and women, have commented that the game is more open and less physical than the men's game but keeps flowing with fewer stops - something that blights modern rugby union internationals. Women's football has become very popular, perhaps women's rugby will follow.
