England v Fiji RECAP | World Cup
READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our live coverage of the World Cup quarterfinal between England and Fiji at Stade de Marseille.
Fiji return to the quarterfinal stage for the first time since 2007, and the same ground where – 16 years ago – they gave eventual champions South Africa an almighty scare in their last-eight match, coming back from 6-20 down to briefly level the scores in the last quarter, before the Springboks pulled away.
Like their opponents this Saturday, England were in Marseille at this stage 16 years ago. Then, Jonny Wilkinson kicked the then-defending champions to victory against Australia. They went on to meet France in the semifinal – a fixture that could be repeated in 2023 if both sides win their respective matches this weekend.
