He said that playing for the greater good makes giving up not an option, especially when considering the struggles of many unemployed and homeless South Africans.

Kolisi added that the team's goal is not to win every game but to avoid betraying the hopes of their South Africans by surrendering.

“When you start playing for others it’s not easy to give up. It’s much harder if you think about how many people would like to be in your place and you know the majority of the people in our country are unemployed or homeless. I’m not saying we are gonna win every game but giving up will be cheating, not just myself but the rest of the people at home.”
