Defending champion South Africa kicked its way to a record fourth Rugby World Cup title by beating New Zealand 12-11 in an scrappy contest on Saturday which saw All Blacks captain Sam Cane become the first player red carded in a final.

Cane was shown the red card for a high tackle on center Jesse Kriel. Three other players were sin-binned — two Springboks and one All Black — in a chaotic match. Both sides finished with 14 players as left winger Cheslin Kolbe was sin-binned for a deliberate knock on. Center Jordie Barrett took the penalty shot from nearly 50 meters wide of the right post but it sailed wide with Kolbe holding his head in his hands, unable to watch.The All Blacks had already had a yellow card after three minutes to flanker Shannon Frizell.
