Siya Kolisi calls on Springboks to honor Soweto history against New Zealand

South Africa captain Siya Kolisi has urged his side to draw motivation from the history of Soweto as the Springboks prepare to face New Zealand at FNB Stadium this Saturday. The fixture takes place near the historic township, a site central to the 1976 Soweto Uprising against apartheid. The match represents the third meeting in the current series, with New Zealand seeking a victory to take a 2-1 lead before the final clash in Baltimore on September 12. The event will also feature a women's double-header as the Springbok and New Zealand women's teams compete. New Zealand players Wallace Sititi and his sister Amarante have both been named on their respective benches for the day. If both take the field, they will become the second pair of brother-sister siblings to play for New Zealand on the same day.
