WATCH | Boks break Welsh hearts at RWC 2015

Cape Town - The Springboks and Wales are set to meet in Sunday's 2019 Rugby World Cup semi-final in Yokohama in what promises to be a tight affair. 

The Boks, despite having lost their last four matches against the Welsh, still go into the clash as favourites. 

In fact, the last time the Springboks beat Wales was at Twickenham in the 2015 World Cup quarter-finals when a late Fourie du Preez try after a superb offload from Duane Vermeulen secured a 23-19 win for coach Heyneke Meyer's men. 

The Boks were knocked out in the semi-finals when they went down 20-18 to New Zealand, but that Du Preez try in the quarter-finals was a wonderful moment for South Africans while Welsh hearts and dreams were shattered.
