The highlight ⁤of the quarterfinals ‌is the clash between ⁢France⁣ and defending champions South Africa. Another highly anticipated ⁤match ⁣is between world ‍number⁤ one Ireland and New Zealand.

For Ireland, reaching the quarterfinals is already a significant achievement, as they have never made it this far in the history of the ‌tournament. Captain Jonathan Sexton, who has played in multiple World Cups, believes that each‌ quarterfinal is⁣ unique and the ⁢teams competing are different from previous years.

While ⁢New Zealand had not⁣ been⁣ defeated by Ireland ‌for ‍111 years until ‌2016, the Irish team⁢ has since had a ⁢positive⁢ record against‍ them, with four wins and​ three losses in their last seven encounters. Sexton emphasized⁣ that‌ what matters now​ is the‍ present⁣ and⁢ how well they prepare for the match.

On the other hand, New Zealand​ has had a mixed performance in the tournament so far, ​with ‌a disappointing ​loss to France in the opening match.​ However, they have shown ‍improvement in subsequent matches and are⁢ expected to put up a tough fight against Ireland.

The clash between⁣ France⁤ and South Africa is also highly anticipated. South Africa suffered a narrow defeat to Ireland in‍ the group stage, and their ‌coaches are now ‌faced with the dilemma of choosing between fly-halves Manie Libbok and Handre‍ Pollard. Libbok, who⁢ has‍ been the starting fly-half, has impressed with his individual skills and​ decision-making, ⁤while Pollard ⁤brings experience and accuracy in ⁤kicking.

The availability of‌ Antoine Dupont, considered one of the best rugby players in the​ world,⁤ is⁣ a concern​ for France. Dupont⁤ underwent⁤ surgery for a⁤ broken collarbone just three days before the ​quarterfinals. ⁢While he has been given clearance to play, there⁣ are ⁣concerns about​ the risks‍ involved. Dupont’s presence on the field has ‌a significant impact on the French team’s ‍strategy and gameplay.

Overall, the‌ quarterfinals promise to be thrilling matches,⁢ with the outcome likely to ⁢be determined​ by the accuracy of kicks ‍and the performance of key players. Rugby fans around the⁣ world are ⁤eagerly awaiting the​ results⁤ of these highly anticipated clashes.
