Tonga stuns England in Rugby League World Cup
Rugby League World Cup: Tonga Defeats England 30-12
In a surprising turn of events at the Rugby League World Cup in Perth, Australia, Tonga stunned England with a 30-12 victory. This marks England's third group-stage match and could jeopardize their chances to advance to the semifinals. The English team, currently ranked third, has faced a setback after their recent defeat to Samoa in the semifinals during the 2022 tournament.
Tonga, ranked fifth in the world, has yet to beat England and will face Lebanon and Samoa in their remaining group games. Only two out of the six teams from their group advance to the last four. The semifinals are scheduled for November 7 and 8, with the final taking place at Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium on November 15.
