Sanchez Credits Wilkinson
Argentina’ Nicolás Sánchez has credited Jonny Wilkinson for helping to improve his game ahead of this weekend’s Rugby World Cup semi-final.
Wilkinson is of course a World Cup legend for his winning drop goal in 2003, and the two players have worked together at Toulon.
“When people ask me, ‘Who is the greatest player ever’, I say Wilkinson,” Sánchez revealed.
"He is a legend and I tried to take advantage of his knowledge as much as possible.
“Wilkinson worked with me on my kicking and made me focus on the details.
"One important thing we worked on was the mentality that a kicker has to have, and he taught me how to be focused.”
