QUOTES OF THE WEEK

I’ve equalled Zidane and that’s something no one can take away from me. Trezeguet has three goals more and I want to catch him up and score as many as I can. On a personal level, it’s an objective, an ambition. – France forward Olivier Giroud reveals his ambition to set a new scoring record with Les Bleus.

There were a lot of line-breaks, there was a lot of running and I think it’s going to be even more intense this weekend. Both teams are desperate. We want to bury the series on Saturday and they want to keep it alive. – Springbok rugby coach, Rassie Erasmus speaking ahead of the second Test match against England today. This after a nailbiting finish to last week’s match in which the Springboks won 42-39.
