Verdensmesterskapet i rugby union 2007
Fra Wikipedia, den frie encyklopedi
Verdensmesterskapet i rugby union 2007 var det sjette Verdensmesterskapet i rugby union, og ble arrangert av Frankrike i september og oktober 2007.
20 nasjoner deltok i verdensmesterskapet, og det ble spilt 48 kamper over 44 dager. Fire av kampene ble spilt i Cardiff, Wales, og to kamper i Edinburgh, Skottland.
De åtte kvartfinalistene fra VM i 2003 (Australia, England, Frankrike, Irland, New Zealand, Skottland, Sør-Afrika og Wales) var automatisk klare, mens det ble spilt kvalifisering om de andre plassene.
Norge røk tidlig ut av kvalifiseringen etter å ha tapt henholdsvis 76-3 og 29-3 for Andorra i september 2004.
Den første kampen i sluttspillet ble spilt 8. september 2007 mellom vertsnasjon Frankrike og Argentina på Stade de France. Argentina vant 17–12 foran 79 507 tilskuere. Finalen ble spilt mellom England og Sør-Afrika, og sistnevnte vant 15-6. Det er andre gang Sør-Afrika vinner VM, forrige gang var i 1995. Det var første gang VM-finalen ble spilt uten at hverken Australia eller New Zealand kom så langt.
