Match Highlights - Springboks vs All Blacks
A converted try in the last play of the Springboks final Rugby Championship match with the All Blacks in Pretoria shattered a South African dream of a double win over the World Champions.
South Africa built up a well-deserved lead against the Steve Hansen's men, and were poised for a famous victory before that seemingly inevitable late All Blacks surge saw them snatch a 32 - 30 victory over their hosts.

Go to comments5min - I'm getting sick of the on field ref being overruled. He clearly sees the drop and rules no knock on but changes his call when the touchie pipes up from miles away. get out of here!
