South African comedian Leon Schuster sends message to Springboks fans while recovering in the hospital.


The star who got a back surgery cheered fans of the South African Rugby team ahead of their game against New Zealand’s All Blacks on Friday. The Springboks beat the Kiwis 35-7.

“I’m lying here in my hospital bed, but I feel good today because tonight this massive game is happening. And I think what the Boks really need is to know that you stand behind them.”

“Even if you don’t agree with everything Jacques Nienaber [Springbok coach] is doing. Forget about that, what matters now is the win factor,” he said in a video posted on Afrikaans is Groot’s Facebook page.
