The Springboks have been given a massive presidential boost ahead of their semi-final clash against Wales in the Rugby World Cup In Yokohama Japan.

President Cyril Ramaphosa told Bok captain Siya Kolisi via a video call that he is confident the team will reach the final and that “you’ve got 57 million South Africans standing behind you.”

“I am so proud of you, yourself personally. I am very proud of the team as well. You guys have done extremely well.”

Kolisi said he hoped to see the President at the final.

“Well, I am coming to the final. I am coming to lift that Webb Ellis trophy with you. Make sure that you book my ticket to the final.“
