Rugby: Rassie hopes Baltimore Test will expand the game in the US before the 2031 World Cup

# Rugby: The Springboks were overwhelmed by the support they got in America, where they clinched the Rugby Greatest Rivalry against the All Blacks in Baltimore. Over 68-thousand spectators packed the M&T Bank Stadium to watch South Africa beat New Zealand 43-28 to win the series 3-1. Earlier, the Boks received a warm welcome at the airport and were stopped by many an adoring fan in the city. Coach Rassie Erasmus hopes the experience will expand the game in the US, which will host the World Cup in 2031.
