The penultimate round of play in the World Rugby U20 Championships take place today in France, as South Africa face England and New Zealand take on hosts France. All matches can be watched live below, including those semi finals for the remaining positions in the tournament.

England will take on South Africa in the first of the semi-finals at Stade d'Honneur du Parc des sports et de l’Amitie in Narbonne before defending champions New Zealand meet France at Stade Aime Giral in Perpignan.

The host nation are the only one of the quartet never to have reached the title decider in the history of the premier age-grade competition, something they will be looking to put right with the support of a vocal home crowd.

While the main semi finals are the most important games this evening, taking place at 19:00 and 21:00 respectively, the other matches are equally important for every team, as they seek to achieve the best possible ranking or secure their palce at the 2019 edition of the World Rugby U20 Championship.

    Ah, I see. Sadly, I was on the train, trying to stream it on my iPad. Ah well. At least the highlights were on the U20 TV tab on the World Rugby site fairly soon after the final whistle (and obviously on RD too...)

    if you are in the UK, I think it is because the group stages were not shown on TV. The semi's were shown on ITV4 as will the final (i think)

    Also boo for the pathetically poor use of the TMO in the France NZ game when the NZ scrum half got away with just a penalty for a stamp which looked to be to the head....

    Boo for geographic restrictions. Oddly this was after being able to watch the pool stages(???). Sounds like two tense semi-finals though.
