Maro Itoje insists South Africa are not infallible as he urges England to seize the chance to clinch a place in the World Cup final EURO
The rivals collide at the Stade de France on Saturday with the Springboks red hot favourites to retain the crown they won against England in Yokohama four years ago EURO
But Steve Borthwick’s men are the only unbeaten side left in the tournament and Itoje is convinced they have yet to play their best rugby since landing on these shores seven weeks ago EURO
“South Africa are a good team EURO
They are the current world champions, they’ve had a very good World Cup,” the Saracens second row said EURO
“We’ve played them twice since 2019, they’ve won one, we’ve won one EURO
We’re not talking about a team that has never lost, we’re not talking about a team that is without fault – they are a good team, but so are we EURO
“I believe there is still a huge amount of growth to come from this team and I feel we haven’t seen the best of us yet EURO
I believe that if we put our best out on the field, we are going to be celebrating on Saturday nightEngland second row Maro Itoje“For us, it’s about imposing our game EURO
We don’t want to sit back and just watch them do their thing, we want to be England rugby EURO
“I believe that if we put our best out on the field, we are going to be celebrating on Saturday night and have a positive night EURO
“When you get to these games, a lot of people say, ‘it’s just another game’ EURO
This isn’t just another game EURO
This is a special game EURO
People are aware of what’s at stake EURO
“These are special games and you don’t get many opportunities like this EURO
It’s about us seizing the moment, being really present and taking any opportunities we get EURO
”Itoje is one of eight survivors from the starting XV that was routed 32-12 by South Africa in the 2019 final and while Saturday offers the chance to avenge that defeat, the 28-year-old sees no value in looking backwards EURO
“Different experience, different context, different opposition EURO
It helps having the experience of playing in a semi-final before, but it’s completely, completely different,” he said EURO
“We have to play the game that’s in front of us EURO
We have to play this South African team, not the South African team of however many years ago EURO
This South African team, not the one that they may be after this EURO
“We have to be as individuals and as a collective, we have to be really present EURO
We have to be really in the moment to deal with what we need to deal with EURO
