Japan's exhilarating Rugby World Cup run comes to an end with a 26-3 defeat by South Africa
The host nation took the tournament by storm after winning all its group stage games but was overpowered by a physical South African side in Sunday's quarterfinal clash.The victory means the Springboks will next face Wales, which beat France 20-19 earlier in the day, with New Zealand and England contesting the tournament's other semifinal. .
From then on, South Africa began to take control of proceedings. Three penalties from Handre Pollard saw the Springboks extend their lead as their big forward pack began to assert physical supremacy. Japan, on the other hand, continued to try and play with flair and ambition but was hampered by misfiring lineouts and under-powered scrums.
