Springbok coach Rassie Erasmus has named the same 23 that has become established at the tournament.

Eddie Jones named an unchanged side to represent England.
Captain Owen Farrell, wing Jonny May and prop Kyle Sinckler all passed fitness tests after getting knocks during their semi-final win over New Zealand.
The match kicks off at 11 am South African time, in Yokohama.
It all comes down to this.
