Stade de France: In the final quarter-final of Rugby World Cup 2023, the Springboks stole an epic in Paris and in doing so, put the hosts out of their own World Cup.

Delighted former South Africa winger Bryan Habana called the win “as special as it comes”.

“They dug deeper than a Springbok team has ever dug to come out against an unbelievable French side.”
