Twickenham could be the venue for the final of the 2015 Rugby World Cup, it was revealed today.
England moved a giant step closer to hosting the competition after tournament organisers recommended their bid to the International Rugby Board.
The Rugby Football Union held off competition from South Africa, Italy and Japan to receive the endorsement from Rugby World Cup Limited.
The final decision will be made by the IRB's council on July 28. Japan have been recommended as hosts for the 2019 World Cup.
England would use iconic stadia such as Wembley, Anfield, Old Trafford and the Emirates Stadium for the tournament, with the final to be played at Twickenham.
