As a proud All Blacks supporter. I take my hat off and say CONGRATULATIONS South Africa for winning your 4th World Rugby Cup 🏆🎖🏉👍🙂

[@diderotnsababaganwa6427]

Up to Now, no One Can stop me burst into joy tears after that I saw South Africa raised the Rugby World Cup. It's a History. It's a pride of not only The South African Republic but for the Whole Africa. Other African Countries should learn much from South Africa to make succes in football and in other many sports in which We didn't yet suceed in WC. South Africa Can tell us the" SECRET" to use 😅 Much respect from 🇧🇮, Burundi.

15 v 15 would have been a better contest, but well done SA

[@brianmpofu2295]

I keep thinking that there was a pattern at play . NZ knew the vulnerability of SA stacking the bench with forwards and they went out to cause injuries. I might be reaching but there was a pattern

[@Stirlingshirecastle]

​@brianmpofu2295 These two giants know each other's strengths & and weaknesses. It was a tactical battle from the first whistle. But boks experience in these games came handy in the end.

If only this stronger together rainbow nation idea can really come to effect in South africa and not just when the beer is flowing and the boks are winning hey great effort by the boks though a great example of what happens when different people come together for one goal

[@drh02]

As a SA supporter, playing the AB's with 14 for most of the game was disappointing. We will take the win. But no one wants to win that way. If the boot was on the other foot we would be blaming the ref.

[@BZ-pv1xd]

Brother a high tackle should be penalised, you could literally kill someone😂

ONLY BECAUSE THE AB S MISSED THE CONVERSION AND THE LAST GRASP PENALTY. ANYWAY CONGRATULATIONS TO SOUTH AFRICA WHO WON THE WORLD CUP FOR 4 TH TIME .

[@InJouHande]

Yes, they should have done better then they could have won

[@noviloba]

Black South Africans should use this opportunity to learn from the white minority's management of SA Rugby. This is glory hunting at its finest. You should always take pride in the success you built yourself.

[@pauljenkin1742]

utter kants

[@newzealandmade5044]

in my opinion all blacks played better to only bet them by 1 point and having an extra player for 60min isnt alot to brag about sam cane soft shoulder compared to a running headbutt to the face kinda bs i reckon a very differently result if it was the other way round and south Afrika was down 1 man down for 60min congratz south africa on the 4th world cup as a new zealander i see u guys love rugby as much as we do with the pride you have when singing ur national anthem always loud

[@RuanAntunes7]

If you want to blame anyone blame the player that got the red card. Let it go and move on because the better team won

[@FundiswaMsesele-tu4eu]

Dirty win for bokke HAYI BO 😂#how come
