Beer we go! England rugby fans pour into Paris as their heroes prepare to take on South Africa in the World Cup semi-final

Thousands of England rugby fans have starting pouring into Paris today to watch their heroes take on South Africa in the World Cup semi-final.

Punters in Red Rose jerseys have already begun sinking pints in the run-up to tonight’s grudge match against the Springboks.

Some 20,000 England fans are expected to cheer on the team when they take to the pitch at the Stade de France in the French capital.

But Steve Borthwick’s squad are coming into the clash as the underdogs, with bookies giving odds of just 5/1 to beat the current world champions. 

And despite the odds, England’s army of supporters still remain hopeful the men in red and white can pull off a famous victory.
