Pieter- Steph du Toit - Matching French physicality

Loading player...
The Springboks will look to snap the eleven-Test unbeaten run of France when the two teams battle it out on Saturday in Marseille.
The Springboks enter the game with a seven match unbeaten run against the French that dates back to 2010. The Springboks last defeat to the French was on 13 November 2009, when they lost 20-13 at Stadium Municipal, Toulouse.
The World Champions are however expecting a tough day at the office and they know they will have to dominate the game upfront.
The Springbok flanker, Pieter-Steph du Toit, said the French can match them at their own game, and they will need to be creative in combating this.
