One of British sport's oldest competitions could have it's first non-British winner as the French side Catalan Dragons play Warrington Wolves in the Rugby League Challenge Cup final at Wembley.

For any club, reaching the final is a great achievement - but for the Dragons, given their history, it's a miracle.

They flirted with relegation last season, were almost forced out of existence 12 years ago and play a sport that was banned by the Nazi puppet Government in Vichy during World War Two.

Even today, rugby league is not part of the curriculum in French schools, despite a campaign from former PE Teacher Robert Fassolette for it's inclusion.
