TOKYO, Oct 13, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – Rugby World Cup organisers gave the go-
ahead for Japan’s crunch match against Scotland on Sunday despite the fall-
out from Typhoon Hagibis, which swept through Japan causing widespread
flooding and left at least seven dead.
“Full assessment confirms venue ready to host big Pool A match,” organisers
said in a statement, urging fans to arrive early amid continued transport
disruption.
