Saturday's Rugby World Cup final between England and hosts New Zealand is set to break the attendance record for a women's rugby matchday after tickets for Eden Park sold out.

More than 40,000 tickets have been sold, surpassing the previous crowd high of 34,235 at Eden Park on the tournament's opening day.

Before that, the record was 20,000, set during the 2014 World Cup in France.

The 2022 edition is set to be the best-attended women's Rugby World Cup.

New Zealand will face England in the Women’s Rugby World Cup final at 6.30pm Saturday.
