This victory is for the people, says Kolisi

SPRINGBOK captain Siya Kolisi said his team’s statement victory over France on Saturday night was special for him in his 100th appearance for his country, but incredible for the team.
The Boks beat France 32-17 despite playing the second half a player down - lock Lood de Jager was dubiously red-carded for a high challenge on a French player.
“We prepared for the event of a red card, the coaching staff warned that the intensity of the game could produce that scenario, and it did?” Kolisi said. “But we kept on working, and Iam so proud of the boys for how we fought to the end”
Kolisi said the win capped the special milestone of him becoming the ninth Springbok to play 100 Tests.
