A female rugby union player reaches out to tackle an opposing player as she runs with the ball in her left hand.

Canada’s women’s rugby team appeared poised to do the impossible Saturday — beat England. Midway through the second half of their WXV 1 final, Canada’s Alex Tessier slipped through England’s line, darted up the field and slid in to touch. She then sent a kick soaring through the uprights to put Canada up 12-7.
