The Springboks secured a famous win over France in the World Cup quarter-finals on Sunday, and will next face England in the final four this Saturday.

One of the standout players against France was none other than Jesse Kriel, who once again silenced any doubters with a powerful performance that included a try assist and a couple of crucial defensive plays.

The Springboks – who beat France by 29-28 in a thrilling contest in Paris – will face England in the last four on Saturday, while Argentina and New Zealand will meet in the first semi-final on Friday.

“We worked together as a team and we talked a lot about never giving up. We knew it would take something special and we did it today,” said Kolisi.

“France asked a lot of questions of us, but the character we showed stood out. We had a clear plan on what we needed to do, especially at the breakdown, and we had to fight for one another, especially in the last eight minutes of the yellow card. I’m proud of the guys and the discipline they showed.”
