The Lions have their tails up after a magnificent last-16 victory over French giants Racing 92 and Jaque Fourie says they will be going for the win in the Challenge Cup quarter-final against Glasgow Warriors.
Over the weekend, the Lions claimed one of the most famous wins in the franchise’s history when they thrashed Parisian outfit Racing 92 in a 51-28 victory to progress to the Challenge Cup quarter-finals for the first time.Making the win even more impressive was that the Johannesburg side lost influential flank Emmanuel Tshituka to an early red card, yet the hosts still managed to score seven tries and rank up a half-century of points.
The last time the two teams faced each was in the Vodacom United Rugby Championship in February, when the Lions claimed a morale-boosting 35-24 win that prompted the turnaround in their season. “It was a tough game against Racing, so the first thing is to get the payers physically ready for Glasgow. “We will keep what we have been doing, we just want to do it better. We know Franco will come with trick plays. We need the discipline to stay in our structure.
