South Africa won their third Rugby World Cup title as they stunned England 32-12 in the final at Yokohama Stadium in Japan.

England headed into the match as favorites with many after their destruction of defending champions New Zealand in the semi-final, but ran into a South African juggernaut in Tokyo.

The South Africans edged a fraught first 60 minutes of action thanks to the boot of Handre Pollard, who kicked six penalties, but cut clear in the closing stages with tries from Makazole Mapimpi and Cheslin Kolbe. (RT)
