Springbok captain Siya Kolisi has recalled watching the 2007 Rugby World Cup final against England in a tavern in the Eastern Cape.
The national team beat Wales 19-16 in the semi-final in Yokohama on Sunday to qualify for Saturday’s showpiece.
Flyhalf Handre Pollard scored 14 points in a man-of-the-match performance to take South Africa within one game of a third World Cup trophy.
Kolisi says the players are really looking forward to playing in the final.
