In the wake of a set of two compelling semi-finals, The Breakdown brings you a preview of the biggest game in world rugby. As the eyes of all sports fans turn to Yokohama, Ed, Will and Hugo unpack the impending drama.
With the pre-match tensions rising acutely, we ask how the game will be played, who will be the key figures and ultimately which side will prevail.
Indeed, with England as favourites and Ian Robertson’s famous Jonny Wilkinson commentary part of our current titles, will there be a new symphonic soundtrack of England World Cup ecstasy by Saturday lunchtime? Or propelled by the legacy of 1995, will Siya Kolisi lead South Africa to their third Webb Ellis Cup?
The Breakdown is the perfect place to contemplate all the important questions before the answers arrive in eighty minutes of pure sporting theatre.
