Springboks coach Rassie Erasmus hoists the Webb Ellis cup

Springboks coach Rassie Erasmus says rugby should not create pressure, it should create hope.

While speaking after his side’s historic win over England in the Rugby World Cup final, Erasmus says they had the privilege of giving people hope, and not a burden.

Springboks captain Siya Kolisi hopes triumph will inspire South Africans to pull together.

South Africa beat England 32-12 to win their third Rugby World Cup title.

They also became the first team to win the title after losing a pool game.
