With a “pulsating 26-3 victory, the Springboks shattered Japan’s dream to reach the Rugby World Cup semi-finals, setting up a blockbuster clash with Wales next weekend“! Defeating Japan gives the Springboks a chance to play the final World Cup game against New Zealand or England and win the world championship. I watched the exciting game at a Fisherhaven pub restaurant. It was fun sharing the experience on Sunday, when South Africans socialize with friends and family. Media shots of team members and video highlights tell it all!

The 2019 Rugby World Cup is the ninth world championship. The tournament is being held in Tokyo Japan from 20 September to 2 November, for the first time in Asia and outside Tier 1 rugby nations.
I’m learning about rugby – the comparison with football is obvious. The scrum is fascinating!
