The Final Showdown Rugby World Cup Final 2007

On Sunday the former finalist England is taking on South Aftica on the final of the IRB Rugby World Cup 2007 being held in France. The home team could not make it to the final so the two visiting teams will be vying for the glory. Both the teams are good and the tournaments favorite. I back South Africa as they are a very well built team. South Africa should not concede any penalties to win this final because there is Wilkinson the perfect kicker in English side. I can make out that South Africa will score some tries where as in the previous matches the English side haven’t been able to score a try in the last couple of matches as per expectations. South Africa has a very fast sprinter whose name I don’t remember but in the warm up sessions he could be seen racing against a cheetah. The English defense should not be underestimated as well. They are walls and their tackling is good. All in all this is a perfect final with a well balanced team on either sides and the result can go anywhere. The IRB Rugby World Cup 2007 Cup could go to the Europe but I favor the cup going to Africa.
