South Africa defend rugby world title beating arch rivals New Zealand by point in the final
-
There was just seven seconds left on the clock, and one massive scrum to play to decide the winner of the Rugby World Cup between South Africa and New Zealand.
The Springboks led by a point and needed to withdraw a last furious push from the All Blacks.
The two lines of forwards locked horns, and South Africa won the scrum, making sure it would keep the ball from the ruck, prompting referee Wayne Barnes to call an end to a nerveracking and gritty final.
Definitely not the most spectacular of the two teams on the field, South Africa claimed a record fourth Rugby World Cup after a phenomenal defensive effort.
The Springboks won 12-11. Another win by the skin of their teeth. Like they did it in the semifinals against England and France in the quarterfinals, progressing each time by the slimmest one-point margin.
