The 19-man squads for tomorrow’s European Rugby League World Cup Qualifier Semi-Finals have been named by the four competing nations who have been arriving in Carcassonne ahead of the games over the weekend, with Wales arriving later on Monday evening.
Serbia face Wales at 1700hrs at the Stade Albert Domec in Carcassonne before the hosts France meet Ukraine at 1930hrs.
The two winners will meet on Saturday, with the two losers also contesting a third place play-off.
