Rugby World Cup 2019 Final
This Doodle’s Key Themes
Today’s Doodle celebrates the Rugby World Cup Final between England and South Africa, which kicks off today inside Japan’s largest stadium, the International Stadium Yokohama.
After a culmination of five weeks of emotional Rugby World Cup play, today's matchup between the two top-ranked teams in the world is a historic honor for each. Meeting again in the final round of the Cup for the first time since 2007, only one team will return home the 2019 Champions! Who will it be?
Best of luck to both teams!
