Description | Team England Rugby's World Cup 2003 is the story of the momentous achievements of Clive Woodward's squad—the first team from the Northern Hemisphere to capture the World Cup. There is a match-by-match account of the opening pool games, the punishing quarter-final against Wales, and the supremely accomplished victory over France in the semi-final, before the exhausting climax of extra-time in Sydney against the Wallabies. The World Cup triumph was a supreme England team effort, and the book features first-person accounts from numerous players, including Martin Johnson, Jonny Wilkinson, Jason Robinson, and Will Greenwood, as well as Clive Woodward, Andy Robinson, and the coaching staff. Part celebratory souvenir, part detailed and comprehensive record, World Cup 2003 is the fully authorised, behind-the-scenes account of English rugby's crowning moment. |
