World Rugby powers Australia and New Zealand have been bounced out of the World Cup by England and France (who now face each other in the semi-finals). The other semi pits Argentina against South Africa.
France (the host nation) came back after being down by 13 points to bounce the favored All-Blacks, who (without looking it up) are something like 80-3 over the past several years.
England was humiliated 36-0 by South Africa in the earlier group stages; France lost to Argentina in the opening game of the tournament.
Argentina and South Africa remain undefeated. maybe Argentina can get Lionel Messi to fly in from Barcelona for a few long, weaving runs for tries.
