A clearly emotional Kolisi had an inspirational message for the country when he was interviewed in the minutes following the full-time whistle. 

“We are so grateful to the people of South Africa,” Kolisi said.

“We have so many problems in our country but a team like this, we come from different backgrounds, different races but we came together with one goal and we wanted to achieve it.

“I really hope we’ve done that for South Africa. Just shows that we can pull together if we want to achieve something.”
