Wales coach Warren Gatland believes it would be an “unbelievable” achievement for Wales to reach the Rugby World Cup final.
The Six Nations champions will contest the Webb Ellis Cup against England if they beat South Africa in Yokohama tonight.
Two previous World Cup semi-final appearances – in 1987 and 2011 – resulted in defeats at the hands of New Zealand and France, respectively.
But Wales have won 20 of their last 23 Tests, bringing an exciting conclusion to Gatland’s success-laden coaching reign that started 12 years ago.
Wales have beaten South Africa five times in the last six meetings, although it has not prevented Wales from being written off in some quarters.
South Africa will face Wales at 9 o'clock tonight.
