Englands rugby team produced one of their greatest ever performances to beat defending champions new zealand and reach the Rugby World Cup final injapan. The all blacks were clear favourites before the game, but england dominated, taking the lead in the second minute and eventually winning by 19 points to seven. Theyll face either wales or south africa, who play tomorrow, in the final. Our Sports Editor dan roan is in yokohama. Not since 2003, when the world cup was won, has english rugby enjoyed a moment as enjoyable, as significant, as the one weve just witnessed here in the yokohama stadium. They came into this match very much as underdogs, they ended it as top dogs. You know, four years ago, england were humiliated on home soil in their own world cup when they crashed out at the group stage. In the wake of that failure, the rfu invested heavily, they brought in the australian coach eddiejones, and they tasked him with putting the pride back into english rugby and reaching the semifinals of this tournament. Well, here this evening, he just went one better, and in doing so, his team have dethroned the superpowers of world rugby, the all blacks. This ends a run of six defeats against them. The last time england beat the all blacks was in 2012. They will have to wait untiltomorrow, of course, england, to discover who they will play in next weeks final, either wales or south africa. But after a performance and a win that will never be forgotten, they now know theyll go into that final as firm favourites. As you would expect, england fans leaving the match were delighted with the teams performance. We caught up with a few of them. The way those boys played today out there for us was absolutely incredible. It was relentless from start to finish. Bearing in mind that was the all blacks they were playing against, is that as good as youve ever seen them play . Yeah, i would say the defence was amazing. Absolutely amazing. Theyjust didnt give an inch. And it was superb, fantastic. If you pick the one to 15 now, every single one of them who wears the white shirt is unbelievable. How would you sum up that performance . Breathtaking. Amazing. If we play like that again in the final, you dont want to count your chickens obviously. But fingers crossed, it all goes well. If we can repeat that performance, then who knows . Relentless was the word. Right from start to finish, absolutely fantastic. A brilliant performance from the boys. You can see them winning the world cup now . Who knows . I dont like to count chickens. Never count your chickens. If they play like that again, they win it. Its as simple as that. The atmosphere was amazing. We had a whole load of all blacks supporters next to us at one side, and we totally drowned them out. It was just superb right from the beginning. Wonderful. A really positive atmosphere as well. How good were england . Really good. Incredible. Really, really good. Her First International rugby match. A good start, yeah fantastic. The team has been praised on social media for their heroic display. The Prime Minister borisjohnson said. Former england player will carling said. And jonny wilkinson, the player who scored the winning points in englands last world cup triumph 16 years ago, said. Somebody else who cannot wait either dominant. Mark cueto played 55 times for england, including the 2007 World Cup Final against south africa. Hes now commercial director at sale. Thank you very much. The fans were excited. What is your assessment of how they performed and therefore . thought it was incredible. From literally the opening minutes, the way they addressed the haka. So much talk of how do you address it, how do you stand up to it, how do you respected. We saw eight totally different address from the england tea m different address from the england team today. And from that first kick off, i think it was less than 90 seconds later, we go over for an early try. Just set the tempo. Set the speed. The aggression, everything dye i think they outplayed the all blacks in every department of the game and it was an incredible performance. Youjust said how do you address it . How do you face that . What did they do differently as a team . Just set up differently. I think because the all blacks have been so dominant for a decade, if not longer, you forever are trying to break them down. Not just aspects of what they are doing in the game but the week up but the haka is become such a big part of the early stages of the game. It allows them almost to get that mental high ground from even before the kick off some of the whistle goes. So i think for england to set up goes. So i think for england to set u p slowly goes. So i think for england to set up slowly differ into almost challenge them, they were in the v formation, the point of the formation, the point of the formation at the back protecting, from that second, it showed that they were mentally up for this game. And throughout the game, lets bear in mind that there was at least another ten if not 14 points left out there. Which is incredible really. Theyll be watching tomorrow very closely. What will they be hoping for . What do they hope to see . I think a lot of their focus will be purely on themselves. When you get to a World Cup Final, he does not matter who you face, he will be a tough game, a tight game. They have played south africa a lot over the years, only recently in last yea rs autumn over the years, only recently in last years autumn internationals, we got beat by them by one point. That was the last time we have played them. More recently, we have played them. More recently, we have played wells a lot more. Probably argue and know a bit more about the welsh because we play them that much more year in and year out. But i think certainly at the moment, they will be completely focused on themselves. I think they seem to be picking at the right time, the pool stages of this world cup were not worrying but they did not look to be on top form. Everything did not quite seem to fall into place but certainly last week against australia, it was a step up, a fantastic performance last week and another step up this week. And today against the all blacks. I think if they perform as well as they did today, they have got a fantastic chance of winning next week. suppose a lot of it is based on their form. Suppose a lot of it is based on theirform. I know eddiejones has some concerns about their fitness coming into this. They have a week to go now. Where will they be doing to go now. Where will they be doing to prepare for that final . to go now. Where will they be doing to prepare for that final . I think at this stage there is not a huge amount tactically or in terms of systems, defence, attack, place, not a lot they will work on or looking to change. A few tweaks here and there, a few different options but i think this week is all about resting up. They have had a tough six or seven games in the world cup and build up to the world cup. And if anything, today i thought the fitness looked incredible. After that 20 minutes, that first 20 minutes, the biggest worry for me, fantastic to see how well they had done and dominated in every aspect of the game, breakdowns, set pieces, everything but the worry was how long can they keep this tempo of . They managed to keep it up for the full 80 plus minutes commit which is massively impressive against the all blacks. I think this week, they will be spending probably more time in the classroom that on the Training Field and making sure they have got enough energy in their legs and their body for the game next week. 0bviously their body for the game next week. Obviously if wells to get through to the final, it would be quite impressive because in all the Northern Hemisphere final. The imagine there will be any changes to the line up . Imagine there will be any changes to the lineup . Difficult to see changes at this stage. But i said that last week after we beat australia in the quarterfinal. And then obviously eddie made changes at ten, 12 and i3. I was not sure if it was the right thing to do but obviously eddie knows better than me and he get the performance today. I will be really surprised barring of the odd injury, not sure withjonny may, look like were his hamstring is, he began with a heavily strapped it had an opportunity to open his legs early on i had one of the all blacks back wrote sort of cornered and you would normally see him just go at him but he looks like he was carrying the hammy a little bit. I think he was changed to him if not shortly after. Barring injury, i cannot imagine there be many changes that team. 0k, thank you so much for that. And well find out how this story and many others are covered in tomorrows front pages at 10 1i0pm and 11 30pm this evening in the papers. 0ur guestsjoining me tonight are jo phillips, political commentator, and nigel nelson, political editor, people and sunday mirror. The Democratic Unionist Party in Northern Ireland has vowed to oppose the Prime Ministers brexit deal in the coming weeks. Dup leader Arlene Foster told the Party Conference today her mps would use their votes in westminster to defeat the Prime Minister. It was a marked contrast to last year, which saw a star turn from mrjohnson. Heres our ireland correspondent emma vardy, and a warning, theres some flash photography in her report. What a difference. This time last year, it was Boris Johnson walking onto this stage to rapturous applause. Today, he was scolded by the dup leader. Rather than have boris with us today, we have had to send him to the naughty step in Parliament Twice in this last week. Twice the party has refused to back the government on crucial brexit votes, saying borisjohnson sacrificed commitments he made to the dup in order to get a deal. We will not give support to the government when we believe they are fundamentally wrong and acting in a way that is detrimental to Northern Ireland and taking us in the wrong direction. Last year, borisjohnson was warmly welcomed when he said no government should put a border down the irish sea. But his revised brexit deal requires new checks at Northern Irelands ports to keep frictionless trade over the irish land border. Its a concession that for the dup undermines Northern Irelands place in the united kingdom, which Arlene Foster has promised to uphold. Now more than ever, let us stand strong for the union. Thank you very much. Arlene foster was keen to remind delegates the dups votes in westminster have made a difference in recent days. And despite what members see as borisjohnsons betrayal of promises that he made here last year, they continue to hope the party can wield enough influence to get the Prime Minister to change course in the days ahead. Just going to have to go back and think very hard about how he will get back our ten votes. Its as simple as that, theres arithmetic to be played. If he dont, i dont see any future for boris, i have to say. The price for an agreement with the eu has been losing the support of allies here. Emma vardy, bbc news, belfast. The headlines on Bbc News Police charge lorry driver Maurice Robinson with the manslaughter of 39 people found dead inside a trailer in essex. Hes also been charged with conspiracy to traffic people. England are into the final of the Rugby World Cup after beating defending champions new zealand 19 7 in yokohama. And the dup leader Arlene Foster vows to keep opposing borisjohnsons brexit deal unless changes are made. Dr renad mansour, project director of the Iraq Initiative at chatham house, said the protesters ultimate aim is to change the entire political system in iraq. These protest continuing in iraq. For some time, there has been a sort of gap between the people and the rulers in iraq. It was for many seen that the next fault line, the iraq that we once thought was a fault line between sunnis and shias and kurds has actually shifted to a fault line between a majority of the population and the rulers. The rulers who have ruled since 2003 without any accountability and also without any ability to provide basic services. So, over the past few years, iraqis have really realised that the only voice they have is not in the ballot boxes or in going to parliamentarians, but through protests. So theyve gone to the streets to protest, famously last year in basra and this year in baghdad, but something has changed and violence has entered into the equation. What weve seen in baghdad is over 150 earlier in the month being targeted and killed by the state Security Forces and their paramilitary allies. So the situation is tense, and the sort of post 2003 iraqi state is on the brink at the moment as most of these protesters, they dont call for the end of one leader, one Prime Minister, one party, even, theyre talking about anti system change, they want to change the whole entire post 2003 structure that they feel was imposed on them by both the americans as well by the foreign iraqi elites who came to iraq after 2003.
