Good day everyone,
I hope you are all well and looking forward to the upcoming Rugby World Cup 2023 in France, welcome to CryptoGod-1’s blog on all things sports. Today I will be doing an update on the progress of the Rugby World Cup, with the Quarter Final stage now complete and the final four known.

With only four sides left we are guaranteed some exciting semi finals. The games will take place as follows:
Argentina - New Zealand - Friday 20th October 2023
England - South Africa - Saturday 21st October 2023
Some major results from the Quarter Finals, with my pre tournament favourites Ireland being knocked out by their old World Cup enemy New Zealand. I had predicted those two for the final, but it was not to be. England remain the only European side left in the competition as they look to win their second World Cup, and will remain the only Northern Hemisphere side to have won a World Cup for at least another 4 years. Holders South Africa are looking strong but will need to be at their best to beat England, while Argentina will look to better their best ever World Cup performance where they finished third in 2007. However, they will be up against it when facing the most successful team in Rugby World Cup history in New Zealand with their three titles.
