A massive congratulations to South Africa, and as predicted by me HERE before the tournament even started, the new RUGBY WORLD CUP winners.

After comfortably brushing aside a valient England side 32:12, they lift the Webb Ellis trophy for the 3rd time ('95, '07 & '19)

Although England were probably pre-match favourites after their semi-final destruction of New Zealand, they just could not cope with the power of South Africa.

New Zealand and Wales were left to fight it out for 3rd place, and it was NZ that came out on top. With a point to prove after bring humiliated by England last week, the NZ All Blacks systematically took the Welsh apart and ran out victorious 40:17
