Springbok captain Siya Kolisi says getting a win to seal the series two-nil in the second Test against Ireland at Kings Park in Durban on Saturday evening (kick-off 5pm), is extremely important for the team.
It is a huge encounter between the World Champions and Six Nations Champions , the top two ranked teams on the World Rugby rankings and between teams that have been building what could turn out to be a massive rivalry in the coming years.
The Boks broke a three game losing streak against the Irish at Loftus last weekend and they want to build on that momentum with a second straight win.
We definitely want to win tomorrow (Saturday). We are not entering this match with the view that we are one up in the series. Its a new game, so for us it is 0-0, and it is important for the team to come away with a victory, said Kolisi.
Weve been working hard as a group, and we know how important this match is for both teams. We have no doubt that theyll come even harder at us than last week because this is their last game of the season, and they want to finish it on a high note.
