The victory, which took place in Bristol, England, represents a milestone for the Canadian team, which is seeking its first title in the competition.\n\nNew Zealand&#8217;s resounding defeat, with a 15-point difference, surpassed their previous defeat margin of seven points, established in 1991 against the United States. Furthermore, this was the Black Ferns&#8217; first World Cup defeat after 18 matches.\n\nCanada demonstrated its superiority from the start, setting a pace that New Zealand couldn&#8217;t match. At seven minutes, a high pass surprised the New Zealand defense, allowing Justine Pelletier to score the first try. Three minutes later, Asia Hogan-Rochester extended the Canadian lead.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a1.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0919%2Fr1548109_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Canad\u00e1 super\u00f3 a Nueva Zelanda en su enfrentamiento de semifinales en Ashton Gate.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nFor their third try, Canada built offensive phases to wear down New Zealand, culminating in Florence Symonds&#8217; score.\n\nNew Zealand reacted after 25 minutes, with a run by Georgia Ponsonby that set the stage for Tanya Kalounivale to score. However, Canada maintained their dominance, and Sophie de Goede, after a spectacular assist from Pelletier, scored a crucial try. De Goede converted the extra point, bringing the score to 24-7 at halftime.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0919%2Fr1548076_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Canad\u00e1 se enfrentar\u00e1 a Inglaterra o Francia en la final de la pr\u00f3xima semana en Twickenham.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nThe second half continued with the same dynamic, with captain Alex Tessier scoring for Canada. Liana Mikaele-Tu&#8217;u scored for New Zealand, but it wasn&#8217;t enough. A cross pass from Ruahei Demant allowed Braxton Sorensen-McGee to score for New Zealand, but time was running out.\n\nDe Goede&#8217;s penalty secured the 34 points for Canada, the most points conceded by New Zealand in a World Cup match.\n\nCanada awaits the winner of the match between England and France in the final to be played at Allianz Stadium Twickenham.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canada Crushes New Zealand and Advances to the Women&#8217;s Rugby World Cup Final In a historic match, Canada secured its place in the final of the Women&#8217;s Rugby World Cup by defeating New Zealand with a score of 34-19.
