Canada and England will vie for the top prize as they face-off in the 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup Final at Twickenham's Allianz Stadium on Saturday. It is a replay of the 2014 final, when England defeated Canada 21-9 to capture their second world crown.
Chasing their first world title, Canada have lived up to their billing as dark horses, topping Pool B with wins over Fiji, Wales, and Scotland before brushing aside the Wallaroos in the quarter-finals at Ashton Gate.
The biggest surprise, however, was their semi-final win over two-time defending champions, New Zealand, which will go down as one of the great upsets at the World Cup. This is only Canada's second final at the showpiece event and they are looking to avenge the 2014 defeat.
England’s Red Roses entered the tournament as favourites on home soil and have been dominant performances throughout. Comfortable pool-stage wins over USA, Samoa, and Australia set the tone before a confident quarter-final display against Scotland.
In the semis, they were pushed harder by France, who trailed by only two points at the break, but John Mitchell’s side powered through to their seventh straight final.
