TOKYO - South Africa coach Rassie Erasmus said his team had"erased" their shocking loss to Japan in the 2015 Rugby World Cup's"Miracle of Brighton" as they prepare to face the hosts in the quarter-finals on Sunday .
"It's 1-1 now and now we're going to be in for a really tough game. One-one. And that game is in the past now and hopefully we won't get asked about it," he laughed. Erasmus said he had already selected his starting XV for the quarter-final match and was"99 per cent" sure that star winger Cheslin Kolbe would have recovered from an ankle injury to face Japan.
"We're playing for our country and we want to try to win the World Cup. For the next week, unfortunately Japan is the enemy for one week.Prop Tendai Mtawarira, known as the"Beast", said the most important thing for the Springboks was to focus on their own performance.
