England beat France 14-9 in the semi-final in Paris
Thousands of England fans went to Paris for the France semi-final and they partied all night after Jonny Wilkinson's two late kicks sealed a tense 14-9 win.

"England got there through unbelievable determination, grit and that thing called passion," said Guscott. "They have done nothing spectacular but have started getting the basic skills right."

"England have done the Lazarus trick and then gone one better. Not only have they walked again, but they have charged towards a destiny which scarcely more than a week ago was quite unthinkable." The Independent, 16 October.
