LONDON (Reuters) - Romania are treating their Rugby World Cup Pool D game against Canada on Tuesday like a semi-final as they bid to secure automatic qualification for the 2019 tournament.

They lost 38-11 to France and 44-10 to Ireland, but could yet achieve that goal if they can beat Canada and follow it up with victory over Italy in their final group match.
