Despite the moments of tension for the &#8220;Red Roses&#8221;, the fans present at Ashton Gate experienced a memorable spectacle, anticipating next week&#8217;s final against Canada.\n\nThe expectations of an easy match for the English fans quickly vanished, as France demonstrated their determination from the start.\n\nInitially, it seemed that England would take the lead thanks to Ellie Kildunne&#8217;s outstanding performance. The player of the year, with impressive speed down the left wing, left the French defenders behind.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a1.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0920%2Fr1548396_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Amy Cokayne celebra tras anotar un try\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nFrance&#8217;s reaction was immediate, raising the intensity level of the match. They managed to unsettle the home team with a physical game and were rewarded in the 23rd minute, when Nassira Konde scored a try after a series of plays.\n\nDespite England&#8217;s attempted attacks, errors cost them opportunities. France, for its part, had a try disallowed, but demonstrated its ability to respond.\n\nIn the English team, Meg Jones and Kildunne stood out, demonstrating their worth in every offensive play. Despite the pressure on the scoreboard, the &#8220;Red Roses&#8221; went into halftime with a lead of only two points.\n\nThe second half started strongly for England, and Amy Cokayne scored a try after a maul play. The match became even more intense, but France did not give up and Joanna Grisez scored a try, bringing her team closer on the scoreboard.\n\nEngland showed their quality and Kildunne, with an individual play, ran a large part of the field to score a try. France responded with another try by Konde, but it was too late.\n\nJones sealed the victory with a try in the final minutes, securing England&#8217;s place in the final, although not without moments of tension.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>England Secures a Place in the Women&#8217;s Rugby World Cup Final England secured their seventh consecutive final in the Women&#8217;s Rugby World Cup, after an exciting and hard-fought semi-final victory against France, with a score of 35-17.
