Wales will look to make their first ever Rugby World Cup Final when they clash with two time champions (1995, 2007) South Africa in the semi-finals. Wales topped Pool D and edged out France 20-19 in the quarter-finals, while the Springboks finished as runners up in Pool B and knocked out hosts Japan 26-3 in the last eight. Historically South Africa have dominated this match up results wise, but recent times suggest a changing of the guard with Wales coming out on top in five of the last six meetings including winning the last four. However all that goes out the window in a World Cup Semi-Final, with both sides desperate to progress and face England for Rugby's greatest prize.
