The Springboks defeat the All Blacks 29-24 in the third Test at Johannesburg’s FNB Stadium on Saturday, holding off a late challenge to win a closely contested match.

With the result, South Africa takes a 2-1 lead in Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry series. Both outlets describe the game as a thriller and focus on the final margin and the series swing, with the match serving as the decider for the Springboks’ advantage.

While one outlet frames the win in terms of the Springboks “holding off” the All Blacks, the other emphasises the scoreline and the updated series position. Neither source provides details on try scorers, specific match moments, or discipline, so the shared emphasis remains the outcome, location, and series result.
