Zintle Mpupha’s promise to Springbok women’s fans: We will leave our hearts on that field

Springbok women’s centre Zintle Mpupha has vowed that her side will give everything against New Zealand in their Women’s Rugby World Cup quarter-final at Sandy Park, in Exeter, on Saturday.

Kick-off is at 2pm.

The Kiwis are massive favourites for the clash as they are ranked third in the world while the Springboks recently moved up two spots to 10th.

The Springboks lost 57-10 to fourth-ranked France in Northampton to wrap up their group campaign last week, and would have had time to work out where they went wrong.
