Welcome to the Evening Standard’s LIVE coverage of the Rugby World Cup semi-finals as England beat New Zealand 19-7 in Yokohama.
England produced one of their greatest-ever displays to storm into the World Cup final with a thrilling victory that reduced the reigning champions to a rabble.
From the moment Manu Tuilagi crossed after 97 seconds an extraordinary match beckoned and the final scoreline did little justice to the domination of Eddie Jones' men, who were superior in every single facet of the game as Maro Itoje starred.
England will face either South Africa or Wales in next Saturday's final and having crushed the odds-on favourites to win the Webb Ellis Trophy, they will be expected to repeat their solitary triumph of 2003.
Stay tuned to Standard Sport for all the reaction from Japan...
