The Rugby World Cup was held in Japan in 2019. In the previous World Cup, the national team beat contender South Africa in a qualifying match but failed to advance to its targeted final eight. However, in the 2019 World Cup, the Japanese team made history by defeating Scotland in the qualifying round and achieving their long-cherished desire to advance to the quarterfinals.
