- However, the Boks accepted near fiascoes and heart-halting completions to another level at this World Cup.
- South Africa showed a late battle to break French hearts 29-28 fourteen days prior.
- Then, at that point, they got away from 16-15 against Britain in the semis, again with an exceptionally late convention.
12-11 against the All Blacks, 16-15 against the Red Rose, 29-28 against the XV de France, the group South Africa that lifted its fourth Web Ellis Cup Saturday (Oct.28) will stand out forever as a 1-point wonder-producer.
Cheslin Kolbe was slouched over on a seat uninvolved, his head covered somewhere inside his green and gold shirt for the second he and South Africa became consecutive Rugby World Cup champs and history producers.

Three focuses throughout three games amounted to that brilliant second and South Africa securing a record fourth Rugby World Cup in front of the All Blacks.
Saturday’s 12-11 edging of the All Blacks for the title was the nail-biter of that multitude of nail-biters, regardless of whether it had an alternate shape to it.
Fylhalf Handre Pollard, who saved the Springboks against France and Britain off the seat, began the last and kicked his group to a 12-3 lead in the 34th moment.
Also, throughout the previous 46 minutes, the Springboks needed to hold off an All Blacks fightback, rather than sending off one.
Nienaber was training South Africa once and for all, as was inverse number Ian Encourage, whose courageous All Blacks group came quite close to winning despite being down to 14 men from the 27th moment after commander Sam Stick’s yellow card was moved up to red on audit. It was just the second Rugby World Cup to be chosen by the slimmest of edges after New Zealand beat France 8-7 in 2011.
