The Springboks must learn to concentrate for 80 minutes if they are going to win the Rugby World Cup‚ coach Rassie Erasmus admitted after his team’s quarterfinal win over Japan.

“We must utilise our chances. We must be consistent. That is the biggest work-on for us. We have the pack and we have backline players.

"There is no specific department that we have to work on. We must learn to concentrate for a full 80 minutes if we are going to win the Rugby World Cup‚” he stressed. “We weren’t great. We were there five times in the first half and five times we stuffed it up. That is something we spoke about at length at halftime.
