The 2025 Women's Rugby World Cup Semi-Final will see France take on England at Ashton Gate Stadium on Saturday.
England booked their semi-final spot with a dominant 40-8 victory over Scotland, extending their remarkable winning streak to 31 consecutive matches, a new world record in international rugby union.
The Red Roses have looked untouchable so far, racking up 248 points in four games while conceding just 25, underlining both their attacking firepower and defensive strength. They now turn their focus to a high-stakes clash with France, with a place in the final on the line.
France arrive in the last four after a much tighter quarter-final, where they edged out Ireland 18-13 thanks to a spirited second-half fightback. Les Bleues also finished top of their pool, but they will face England without key figures Manae Felleu and Axelle Berthoumieu, both suspended after incidents in the Ireland match. Berthoumieu was handed a 12-game ban for biting Aoife Wafer, but has since seen her suspension reduced to nine games.
