Canada Women’s Rugby vs. Fiji World Cup Live Updates, Scores

The Women’s Rugby World Cup continues today with three more exciting matchups following a grueling opening contest between the USA and England on Friday. 

Australia, Samoa, Scotland, Wales, Canada, and Fiji are all set to hit the field to begin their World Cup campaigns in the group stages. 

Canada comes in as the No. 2 world-ranked squad, seven points behind England. The team has yet to drop a game during the 2025 season, taking wins over the USA and Australia and a draw with New Zealand. 

On the other side, Fiji is currently ranked the No. 14 team in the world, and is making its 2025 season debut at the Women’s Rugby World Cup. 

It seems that the Canadians have the upper hand heading into the contest, but anything can happen when it comes to rugby.
