Ireland will face France in the Women’s Rugby World Cup on Thursday to decide who will qualify for the semi-finals as pool winners.
That’s after Tom Tierney’s side successfully reduced a 14-nil half-time deficit to Japan yesterday to win out 24-14.
The tries coming from Alison Miller and two from Paula Fitzpatrick.
France were comfortable 48-nil winners over Australia, setting up Thursday’s winner-takes-all clash.
