The French team as the principal host of the Rugby World Cup, started as favorite but unfortunately they showed a poor performance losing three of the seven games played against New England and Argentina. However, one of the best matches of the World Cup was the one in winch France faced New Zealand in the quarterfinals.
After seven weeks unbeaten the Springboks take The Well Ellis Cup home. The team from the rainbow country kicked most of the points with a rude less game. The South Africans also showed a determine defense. They also counted with the support of Thabo Mbeki, their President, who was very proud about the victory.
On the other side, English Sunday newspapers spoke of England's "agony", related to it England’s coach, Bryan Ashton said: "I'm disappointed for the players, not for myself. But South Africa deserved it. They were the best team."
As worthy winners, the Springboks arrived at OR Tambo Airport on Tuesday morning to celebrate their victory which will take several days of party around the country for them sharing the triumph. This win is not only one more achievement, it also means a preparation for the upcoming FIFA Soccer World Cup in 2010.
