All Blacks head coach Ian Foster has expressed his joy about today’s 44-6 Rugby World Cup semi final win over Argentina saying it means everything and it was their goal to be in the RWC final.

Foster says they came into this tournament with the ultimate goal of making it into the grand final and probably winning it and today they have given themselves that opportunity.

He says he is proud of the way his players backed themselves up today and says it was a tough game against Argentina.

He adds Argentina put them under a lot of pressure but his players stayed in the game.

Foster says it is really satisfying seeing the All Blacks get to the final but now all the pressure of it comes.

Meanwhile, the second semi final of the RWC between England and South Africa will kick off at 7am tomorrow.
