Welcome to the Evening Standard’s LIVE coverage of the Rugby World Cup as USA take on Tonga
Amid the chaos of Typhoon Hagibis, this Pool C game has been given the go-ahead in Higashiosaka City. Both nations have lost all three of their pool games so are unable to reach the knockout stages.
Tonga will be bidding farewell to captain Siale Piutau and no.8 Sione Kalamafoni, who are retiring from international rugby after the World Cup.
USA, meanwhile, will be looking for their first tournament win since 2011 and only their fourth since 1987.
