The Boks deserved to win that game.

That being said the loss of Sinckler was huge. In the England set up he takes up so much first up ball and distributes. Also, I don't see him getting worked over like Cole did. It was an immense loss.

Also, Garces calls a horrible game, I really can't stand his approach to the laws. The breakdown was a mess.

The deciding factor in this was the Boks' D. It was far superior to that which the Pommies faced the week before. Better b D at the fringes and no over pursuit, also the Boks slowed the ball down at the breakdown. Every ball was contested. Once they had a bit of a lead they allowed themselves to start moving the ball around.

For a game without a lot of tries it was a pretty good game.

Crazy to think this is SA's 3rd WC win and only the first one in which they have scored a try.
