READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our live coverage of the World Cup semifinal between England and South Africa at Stade de France in Saint-Denis.

The finalists from four years ago – and the finalists from the last time that World Cup was hosted by France – meet a round earlier in 2023.

In total, 26 of the 43 players from the World Cup 2019 Final are back for another go in Saint-Denis in 2023 – with Elliot Daly, Manu Tuilagi, Jonny May, Tom Curry, Courtney Lawes, Maro Itoje, Jamie George and captain Owen Farrell starting for England then and now; and Mbongeni Mbonambi, Frans Malherbe, Eben Etzebeth, Pieter-Steph du Toit, Duane Vermeulen, Damian de Allende, Cheslin Kolbe and Siya Kolisi doing the same for the Springboks.
