Rugby World Cup 2023 day 12 highlights<\/h3>\n

England rugby fans were reportedly caught up in a ‘dangerous’ crush after the World Cup win over Chile on Saturday. The incident threatens to open France up to further scrutiny after a sequence of events that reflect poorly on the tournament’s host nation.<\/p>\n

Steve Borthwick’s England side put notions of unattractive rugby to one side at the weekend, when they dispatched Chile 71-0. Henry Arundell was the star of the show, scoring five tries to make it three wins from three.<\/p>\n

After the game fans scrambled to get the tram back into Lille, creating a crush which, according to The Daily Mail, caused one woman to faint.<\/p>\n

France has faced criticism for their heavy police presence at the tournament, with authorities focusing on controlling crowds rather than helping them.<\/p>\n

Groups of supporters packing into an overwhelmed public transport system has become a recurring theme at the tournament, with local taxi drivers driving up fares to capitalise on the sheer number of fans in attendance.<\/p>\n

Concerningly, the incident after England’s win over Chile was not an isolated one as hundreds of supporters were caught in a ‘potentially catastrophic’ crush before the victory over Argentina earlier this month.<\/p>\n

Journalists and relatives were among those to miss kick-off in Marseille, with tournament organisers subsequently pledging to improve communication and provide more people on the ground to direct supporters.<\/p>\n

“It was a total disgrace to get into the stadium \u2013 genuinely scary and dangerous – in a crush on a super steep set of steps,” one fan told The Telegraph. “The only saver was a rugby crowd being polite because it could have been catastrophic if people had charged the gates.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The scale of police presence in France was also exemplified during England’s clash with Chile, when fans spotted a sniper inside the stadium.<\/p>\n

Later on the Saturday, a journalist was reportedly dragged out of a room by security while trying to interview Arundell in a closed-off area, with World Rugby set to receive a formal complaint.<\/p>\n
