‘We have to take our chances,’ says Springbok captain Siya Kolisi
The Springboks will be desperate to bounce back with a win to level Rugby's Greatest Rivalry series going into the final two Tests.
The Springboks aim to deliver a more clinical performance when they take on the All Blacks in the second Rugby's Greatest Rivalry Test at Cape Town Stadium on Saturday. Following their 33-16 defeat in the opener at Ellis Park last weekend, the Boks' captain Siya Kolisi emphasized the importance of converting their dominance into tries.
In a recent press conference, Kolisi reflected on the missed opportunities, stating, "If we had converted those, maybe things would have been different." He highlighted the significance of learning from past mistakes and making the most of the chances created. Kolisi also acknowledged the pressure of a must-win match, given the series' implications for their championship aspirations.
Despite being up against a formidable opponent, Kolisi expressed confidence in the team's ability to handle the challenges ahead, drawing from previous experiences of bouncing back from difficult starts.
