The Springboks face England in the Rugby World Cup semi-finals on Saturday night from 21:00 at the Stade De France in Paris.Springbok coach Jacques Nienaber showed great faith in his Rugby World Cup quarter-final squad by retaining the same starting XV and replacements’ bench for Saturday’s semi-final.
“We’ve been building a quality Rugby World Cup squad for the last few years so that we could be in this position going into the knockout matches,” said Springboks coach“We have a squad of 33 players, all of whom are very closely matched in terms of their skill and quality of play which made it tempting to make changes this week and it was tough to select this group both last week and this week. But we feel it’s now time to go with the players in the squad who we believe are in their best form.
