The Springboks defeat the All Blacks 43-28 in Baltimore to finish the inaugural Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry series with a 3-1 win, capped by a strong showing after the break. Reports describe the Springboks producing an emphatic fourth-Test performance, including multiple tries, to close out the series.
Several outlets highlight standout moments and players, citing a sharp start by Morné van den Berg and a notable contribution from Cameron Hanekom during the win. Others focus on the broader pattern of play, describing a second-half surge that helped turn the match. While most coverage centers on the result and the series-clinching nature of the victory, some also assess what the team still needs to improve. One outlet points to concerns raised by the series, including finishing, lineout accuracy, and defence out wide.
Beyond the game itself, one report notes that the Springboks do not return home immediately, with Rassie Erasmus’ side travelling from Baltimore to Perth for their upcoming Test against Australia.
