Building Jerusalem

After six intense weeks of competition, England faces off against the defending champions, Australia. The teams remain evenly matched after eighty minutes of play. With only two minutes remaining in extra time, England advances to within 40 yards of the goalposts. The ball is swiftly passed back to Jonny Wilkinson, the star of English rugby, who attempts a drop kick for a chance at sporting immortality. This remarkable tale of pressure, expectation, and bravery traces the journey to success, beginning with the sport’s professionalization in the 1990s and culminating in the triumphant 2003 World Cup campaign that transformed Woodward’s challenging situation into a victory.
