WINNING the World Cup saw New Zealand pick up a small trophy that looked like it could be bought on “eBay for a tenner”.
New Zealand’s women’s rugby team beat England 34-31, ending the Red Roses’ 30-test winning streak.


England played a large portion of the game with 14 players due to Lydia Thompson’s 18th minute red card.
Such a disadvantage saw England extend their final losing streak to New Zealand to FIVE.
England had a chance to sieze vicxtory with one last line-out but they lost their throw.
New Zealand’s reward for winning the World Cup was a bizarrely small trophy, which has left fans saying the same thing: It looks cheap.
One said on Twitter: “Genuinely I ate a kebab last night that was bigger than that trophy.”
Another said: “Oh come on! The Women’s Rugby World Cup deserves a better trophy than that.
“Looks like something you can pick up on eBay for a tenner.”
A third tweeted: “That rugby World Cup trophy…awful!!! I’ve got bigger most improved cups rotting in my shed!!!”
