Rugby World Cup tables 2023: Latest pool standings and group results
George Ford kicked all of England’s 27 points in Marseille on Saturday night as Steve Borthwick’s side withstood the early sending off of Tom Curry to silence their critics in a brilliant display of resilience and physicality.
On Friday night, a suitably epic showdown between France and New Zealand commenced seven weeks of high-octane action across the Channel, with no fewer than 48 matches being played across nine host cities culminating in the final on October 28.
South Africa are the defending champions after their bruising victory over England in Yokohama four years ago, with many tipping the Springboks for another deep run this time around as they battle Scotland first up.
However, France have the tools to finally end their long wait for global glory on home turf and recorded a huge win over the feared All Blacks to lay down an early marker.
No1-ranked Six Nations Grand Slam winners Ireland are better-placed than ever to halt their World Cup curse, thrashing Romania in their first game with Johnny Sexton back before Australia took out Georgia in the first win of the second Eddie Jones era for the Wallabies.
Here are all the latest group tables, fixtures and results for the 2023 Rugby World Cup.
