South Africa produced a magnificent defensive effort to edge 14-man New Zealand 12-11 in an arm-wrestle of a Rugby World Cup final on Saturday, claiming the Webb Ellis Cup for the fourth time in eight attempts.
Only a single yellow card had been shown in nine previous World Cup finals but the crackdown on foul play led to four being handed out over 80 minutes of intense rugby at Stade de France.
The Springboks held firm under huge pressure in the final quarter, however, and Handre Pollard's four first-half penalties proved sufficient to retain the title they won four years ago in Japan. New Zealand were down to 14 men again just before the half-hour mark when Cane clattered head-first into Springboks centre Jesse Kriel but this time there was no reprieve and the All Blacks skipper sat out the rest of the final.
Kolisi, however, was sent to the sin bin in the 46th minute for a high tackle on Ardie Savea and New Zealand scrumhalf Aaron Smith thought he had scored the first try of the contest eight minutes later after a brilliant break from Mo'unga.
