Following the excitement of the Heineken Cup rugby union matches between nations at St James' Park, there is another England match coming up very soon!
In September there's the small matter of Newcastle United's famous ground hosting a clash between England and Italy at St James'.
Following England's Quilter International matches against Wales - where they won a convincing victory - then Ireland, on August 24, the team will face Italy in Newcastle on September 6 at 7.45pm.
England head coach Eddie Jones said: "These Quilter Internationals will be extremely important to the squad’s final preparations before we head out to Japan.
"It is great news to be able to take England to another part of the country and Newcastle will be fantastic hosts like they were for the matches here in 2015. We will look forward to playing in front of a great Northern crowd."
Lee Charnley, managing director at Newcastle United, added: "We are excited to have brought another high profile rugby event to St. James’ Park and to the city, and look forward to hosting Eddie Jones and his team before they embark on their trip to Japan."
