South Africa pulled off a great escape to beat England 16-15 at the death and keep its title defense at the Rugby World Cup alive. 

The Springboks will now face old rivals New Zealand where one of them will win a record fourth World Cup. 

The match against New Zealand will be South Africa’s fourth World Cup final with the Springboks having lifted the trophy in 1996, 2007 and 2019. 

In Friday’s first semi-final, three-time champions New Zealand thrashed Argentina 44-6. Thanks to seven tries the All Blacks cantered to victory over Los Pumas in a performance that once again, especially after their quarter-final triumph over Ireland, illustrated why you can never write them off.

Meanwhile,the bronze final will take place on October 27 where Argentina and England will meet in the match to decide third place after each losing in their semi-finals.
