That Mo'unga Will Jordan Try was a thing of pure beauty 🍺😎
One of the best I've ever seen
magic touches everywhere in that try. A clinical line out, the pass from Smith as flat as a pancake, the dummy pass to get through that first line and then the outright pace to the line! Just magic!
They tried the same thing in the final. But who was there in the gap? PSDT
@@davidireland9929 he was huge in that final..
@davidireland9929 made easier by playing 1 A.B less fir over half the game and still didn't score a try!
Best rugby world cup game I've ever watched and also South Africa v France that was exciting too.
Those 2 games were semifinal worthy
I agree. The quarters were infinitely more exciting than the semis
Those 2 games were already semifinals in advance.
Bro France vs south Africa was more exciting
@@daveupnorth23 Should have been the semis
Lol I love it when Ireland fans say "This was the rugby world cup final match"😂😂😂😂 Bro. Ireland would never play the world cup final.
The best thing about this game is the TMO didn't interrupt much and the game flows better. I love that both team gives their all without being interrupted. Such an exciting games. I think this is one of the best game you see in long time.
Apart from the repeated penalties involving Andrew porter.
TMO is a complete disaster for Rugby.
@@Egill2011 Wouldn't you want a fair game? I guess that's what the TMO is there for. To pick up any cheating/infringments of both teams.
@@blackpanda7612 If only that was what happened through the world cup! Sadly it seems the TMO thought they were the main event through the tournament.
@@boswellwhanau Its bizarre though isn't it. That the TMO can be so inconsistent. We have to accept that there will be errors in judgement from the panel. This happens in other sporting discpilines too. It's not always perfect.
This game goes right into the greatest games of all time vault.
Was cheering the ABs all the way during this game...respect from Saffaland..
Isn't that strange? We were cheering for NZ too yet they would have been the more difficult opponent in the final.
@forwardpaunganwa4135 lol...keep it in the family I guess....
@@forwardpaunganwa4135 I don't know a Saffa that wasn't cheering for NZ. Rather them than dealing with the NH pundits plus Ireland needed to be reprimanded for beating us same goes for France for beating NZ.
congrats on the world cup victory, love from nz
Same as the previous poster, congrats on winning an epic final, loved every minute of it, best wishes from NZ.
As an All Blacks fan, this win was tremendously satisfying. Especially from losing the Ireland series on home soil, it was tough pill to swallow. Thanks ABs for an amazing year, a lot of ups and down during the build up for the 2023 RWC. Congratulations SA! see you on Rugby Championship. It will be 4 more years till we get another crack at it but as long as the Web Ellis stays on the south, I am happy with that.
100% rather it in the South than the North 😂 Arguably the greatest game I've seen due to the circumstances and as you said the series loss

Of course NZ play their best game in years just to beat us and Sam Kane plays the game of his career and then gets red carded in a final , Ireland is cursed
It’s in your heads
@@HerbalTee29 ???
to me this was the real final
@@RastaAfricanGentleman So what happened? Knock your head when you got up on Saturday, then???? Could have said the same about the other quarter final between the blues and the greens. France hadn't lost a match at that stadium since forever already until the greens got to them.
Na anyone else we would have gotten through in fact we could have won this game. This was a world class 50/50 that could have gone either way we had our chances and pealed off on the maul too early got held up and that sitter of a penalty had we gotten that then the last phases we could have orchestrated a drop goal. Just wasn't our day I'm confident that had we played anyone but new zealand on that day we would have won.
Now this was a game worthy of a World Cup final! 2 world class teams and a ref allowed to do his job!
Wait, isn't it the same ref that was so bad in the final???
Wayne Barnes refereed the final, but I guess when you're blinded by salty tears its hard to see clearly.
“Ref allowed to do his job” funny that you absolute neek
1 world class team and an over achieving irish team
Ireland will never play RWC final
Man that final whistle and the way the A.B'z went up as one, goes to show how much beating Ireland meant to them
It did for all New Zealanders. We had to put up with some pretty sad Irish comments coming off the back of their Test Series win in New Zealand in 2022 it was Irelands time and the All Blacks time was over.
This match was simply the greatest I have ever seen, considering: 1. the high stakes - a World Cup knockout match between the 4th ranked ABs (seemingly written off by a number of people, including NZers) vs the 1st ranked Ireland, when Ireland were on the cusp of equaling (and would undoubtedly have subsequently surpassed) the record for most consecutive matches won by an international team; 2. the retribution factor - the ABs avenging their first ever series loss to Ireland in 2022; 3. the flow of the game all throughout - the quality of tries scored by both teams, the variable offensive tactics by both teams, the solid defence by both teams and lack of TMO involvement that made it a see-saw contest to the penultimate finale; and 4. both teams gave it their all and the match truly could have gone either way, which galvanised the brilliant rivalry between these two small island nations that punch far above their weight 🖤☘️
Nobody can say that when my Bokke is there but i don't blame you, in time you will have to accept this fact.... We'll win the next world cup too, just wait and see 😂😂😂😜

Not in Australasia 🤔 during the 2003 & 2011 tournaments, the Springboks failed to make it pass the Quarterfinals 😆🤣😂🤣😆
@@AlcatelSkinny SUUR POES LOL
@@AlcatelSkinny We all know in 2011 Bryce Lawrence was the Man of Match for Australia in the QF. You're just hoping they don't win in Australia 😂😂.
Amazing from the AB especially after SA at twickers and France...Huge respect for the AB...best team in the world...Capetown
The Ireland winning streak started and ended with the all blacks.
The irony isn't lost on me. Irish are ya?😂
Best rwc I have seen in the last 4 years!
To me as an AB supporter, this was the most enjoyable game of 2023, nevermind the final, this one was so satisfying
It was one no one expected us to win...and that alone was satisfying in its own way :)
I’m sure you would have felt different if you had won the final. Easy to forget it when you lost. But I agree this was a great game. Love it when the AB play at this level. Just not against the Bokke.
@@danielmcw yes, its 630pm precious 🤣🤣
But we knew@@boswellwhanaulosing the opening game against France put us in 2nd spot hoping Ireland topped pool B if they beat South Africa which they did, and matched South Africa with France in quarterfinal 2. While we had Ireland with revenge on our minds.
💯 And I am originally from South Africa. Man, it was soooo satisfying. We really respect the ABs in RSA.
France & Ireland =winners group stage New zealand & south africa=runner up group stage Final runner up vs runner up 😊😊😊
Boks and AB's deliver when it matters.
Great game by Wayne Barnes here 👏🏾 thank you for your long-standing career mate!
That AB try off the lineout at 52 mins. Wow. Clinical. The play went from static to full speed in like 2 seconds.
As South Africas we knew The All Blacks would come out victorious 😊
I won money on this game... Knew Ireland would choke again.
You also would rather have played the ABs, because your recent record against Ireland is dire including a loss in this very world cup.
@@xpat73 Settle down, Boks would've beaten Ireland in the group game if Pollard was available as he was later. But in the end Ireland can't make a semi let alone a final so there was no chance Boks would meet them again.
No u guys didn't
@@xpat73 Apart from a penalty try and sexton slotting a few kicks, did any actual Irishmen score any points in this game?
O, the agony, a year ago : - will we have Beauden, or will we have Ritchie at 1st five... &Jodie was solid at fullback. This great solution was found, and the two try-scoring line-breaks were made by Beauden and Ritchie. Great stop by Jodie too. Smart solution. Our greatest achievement (sure, at the World Cup, as it turned out) but for many years. Massive game. The ABs 'turned up to play' in the final too. So good, as good as ever. And just one point in it again in that one (SAs three one-point games). Great tournament. Well done ABs. & all.
As an Ireland fan, it was tough watching this again but this was a game decided by fine margins. Overall NZ deserved the victory but there wasn't much in it.
Just the wall of china the All Blacks put up at the end.
Is there a better sight in rugby than watching johnny sexton sulk
Nope. Except maybe Finn "box of tricks" Russell moaning.
That’s why you never underestimate all backs in a quarter final! 12 players from Ireland said to Eben after the match “we will see you in the final” …. How do you underestimate 20 years of Rugby dominance in rugby in The All blacks 🤣🤣🤣
Oh the glory. I cant stop watching this. All Blacks are still the best rugby team in the world.
They why don't you have 4 world cups 😂
@@jadenphilander8799 saffa's trolling games ey aren't part of, very sad. lol
@@nzfreeski He said ABs are the best team in the world then why dont they have 4 world cuos even though the ABs had a 8 year headstart when the boks were banned? Springboks are niw the greatest tournament team in rugby history. Get down on your knees and bow down to the greatest nation. Even your own in Tony Brown left NZ to come to the springboks because he knows SA Rugby is the Present and Future of this Sport. Tony Brown Rejected Fozzie and Razor to Join Rassie and be the boks new attaxk coach because he wants to be part of a world cup winning team and not a Bledisloe winming team🤣🤣🤣
Because they have beaten every team and have more wins over SA than SA has over them, including in the years that SA cheated point blank with their home refs and stupid apartheid laws. Arrogant SAFFAs, you'll eat your words in four years time - boring-est, most one dimensional team ever, didn't even score a single try in the final and beat a 14 man team by a single point, and still brag about it like they're something special - what a joke your team is.@@jadenphilander8799
😂
As a SA Supporter,it was a good game.That's why Ardie Savea is my fav
As a neutral , as great as the Springboks are now I reckon the All Blacks would have edged past them in the Grand Final if it was 15 vs 15

@@Waywind420And if Kolbe and and kolisi weren't carded i reckon the boks would have stepped up a gear and won by more than a score.
@@iamnemo1943 probably yeah. I honestly don't care who wins out of those two teams, I just deeply resent the fact that I woke up at 3am to watch 14 guys play 15 and that people are ok with passing it off as if we actually got to see who the best team is.
@@Waywind420 AB players need to learn how to tackle. They have the highest rate of red & yellow cards of the tier 1 teams. Can't tackle legally in pressure games.
When Ireland beat NZ and won that series, The signboard at Auckland airport departures read Well done Ireland, see you at the World Cup. And Best you know they meant it! This was personal for the Kiwis. No way Ireland were winning this game.
The All Blacks had a bit of a chip on their shoulders going into the RWC game against Ireland because they were piped on home soil by the men in green. It is one thing to get beaten on your own turf but for the ABs to lose a test series … its utterly humiliating and whilst they might not say it but deep down the whole country and the men in black were hurting so I think in a way this was their RWC game . Noticed the NZ public weren't too upset that they didn't win the RWC.
As a SA i still approveThis was Gold to watch.
Came in close second to our QF with France. France SA top match ever recorded, and then closely followed by NZ Ireland and SA NZ final. Hard to say which was better SA NZ final or NZ Ireland QF?

So New Zealand scored all the tries in this game

And in the final too.
@@Coconautify Wasn't enough though
What a match of Rugby
Anyone watching this before the Six Nations? Henson's missed kick was key IMHO
Best game of the tournament
Hard to say - F vs S just as good. Finals also ebbed and flowed with cutting-edge tension all the way. So many "almost tries".
Nah I’d say France vs South Africa was more exciting. There were more dynamic breakaways and the speed and of play was unbelievable
11:41 absolute bottle artist.
Connor Murray pulling Jordie Barret and then immediately raising his hands like he had no idea what was going on...before he was even looking at the ref to see what the penalty was is pure gold
Jordi Barrets try saving tackle was the turning point.
Could have gone either way , like probably every knockout game from RWC '23
Ireland had their chances, good teams find a way to win in the big games
I dont know if it's been done before, but I've never seen an opposition player win against the ABs on their 100th test match. Players that come to mind are: Adam Ashley Cooper, John Smit, there are more but they're coming to mind atm lol
The ABs not at their best with all the saga come to the final and get beaten by 1 point! Tells you a lot about the men tney are! There is that something in the New Zealand culture when it comes to the Abs. Very sacred!
As an All-Blacks fan, I really sympathize with Ireland! They played a great game and were so close to winning! I really wish them all the best in the next RWC in Australia ❤🇳🇿🇮🇪❤
How Dan Sheehan moves like that with his build will forever remain a mystery to me
Dane Coles was doing that years ago
@@Erock1275 Asafo Aumua pretty mobile too
Although heartbreaking, I think we're finally in a place to get past a quarter final. We were a bad bounce of the ball away from beating the lads that ended up in the WC final and probably would have won if Sam Cane could tackle. We've gone too soft, imop, and I'm hoping Nienebar will bring a bit of roughness to Leinster and subsequently, Ireland. 4 years time we genuinely have the potential to go further than the quarters.
Ive thought long and hard about this.....Ireland have been void of luck at world cups. Every team that wins needs a bit of it. SA got it in the final, bounce of the ball every time went against NZ. I feel for Ireland, they are so good enough, but....wrong side of a pool, holding on to old players late in the game, a resurgent NZ....they just couldnt get that 0.5 percent luck that ya need to get going .
@ryanfreeman8097 you could say that, but then again, if Dan Sheehan tackled Will Jordan, we could be celebrating the WC win.
@@Spud607 How often does Will Jordan get tackled from behind....
@@ryanfreeman8097 there was a missed tackle that let him through
Ireland had the best team in the World Cup. If you cannot win with this team, how do you win? If they don’t learn to deal with pressure, they will wait 36 more years to win a World Cup. They should’ve kept their mouths shut during the Haka. The singing really pissed the All Blacks off
Well The Best Thing About This Game Is That We Weren't Supposed To Make It Past A Quarters-Final But We Did And It Felt Liked We Won The RWC Final.
It felt like I won the lotto, but I didn't
this was a bitter sweet victory for The All Blacks
Ireland's quarter final curse continues 😭
first time i could bring myself to watch it since
Same as took a while
Me too, Big build up every world cup :(
15:13 😂 Take that cauliflower ears
NZ always the benchmark in attacking brilliance 👌
Reiko's defense went missing in this game. Aki went right through Reiko and scored. But all in all a good game by both teams. If there was a lesson to be learned in this game it would be to never underestimate them bloody Kiwis especially if they weren't one of the tournament-favorite.
You got to be kidding. So Reiko is supposed to cover out wide ( centre and wingers) as well as inside 2nd five. Please don't make calls on things you don't have a clue about
As a South African - I really wouldn’t have minded either of these teams winning 🍀
This how you cut highlights, including missed kicks and all. Capturing the "flow" of the game. Well done! Too bad Ronan Kelleher could not ground that ball. Ireland would have won it, and arguably the whole competition. They beat the eventual winners. C'est la vie!
Gotta believe it to achieve it
Great quarter final. Enter Springboks v France, hold our beers
That sexton kick...knew it was over from then
I did remember Irish Fans saying this was going to be a "One way traffic match" days prior to this match....too bad they couldn't back that up
That they did. A few times. When have the EVER backed it up.
7:45 forward pass by Lowe
He plays for....not from...the greatest team EVER. Of course it couldn't be forward. One bunch of Kiwis beats another.
I am also confident that Ireland will never beat the AB's again.
Why, because New Zealand were the only the width of Jordie Barrett's hand of losing this match?
Those days are gone
Dont BE silly boy,we will Beat The AB,a Lot more in the Future,and you know IT Mate 😅
I think he's talking about in a QF at a RWC
@@ManaBlack208😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a game
bundee aki's try was something
The real difference is mentality. Both France and Ireland left DuPont and Sexton on the field too long and they tired. South Africa and New Zealand were willing to make the substitutions. Rugby is more than 15 v 15, and that’s exactly why the Boks won the whole thing. No team in rugby history has emphasised that more. Every person has a part to play, and they all give 100% and have 100% trust in one another to do it.
Have to agree, farrell should have made substitutions earlier when sexton and others were out of gas. Overall too many players had sub par performances, credit New Zealand for being ruthless
I am sure the whole of South Africa shouted harder for the ABs than New Zealand themselves. The next night we did it again for us against France. That was a weekend of rugby to remember ❤
this is my first time watching this since october 14 2023. i was just so devastated from this
just before AS yellow, that was a forward pass from Lowe to Hansen
If Ireland won this game and the world cup they could've became the greatest rugby team ever. Grand Slam, Winning Streak Record and World Cup Winner. Only the ABs can stop that momentum. 🔥
Now your gonna have to win at least 4 world cups with 3 of them back to back to surpass the GOATS. I cant see that happening in 100 years. Meanwhile the Boks are going for 3 in a row & you still searching for your 1st semi final. But you do have good team I’ll give you that.
Thats a bit far fetched. Def a very good team, but greatest ever? The ABs from 2012-2015 had a 93% win rate and went a season undefeated. Multiple trophies and a WC victory. Let’s see what Ireland can do the next 4 years and see if they can keep it going. It’s great for international rugby 🍻
They were not going to beat the Boks in the finals, you know this.
@@soletumazimela6481 to be fair, they already beat the boks in the pool stage, not too far fetched
@@soletumazimela6481remember that Ireland have beaten the Boks the last 3 times they faced off. Won’t ever know who would’ve won that final. We’ll see you in July though
Sam whitlock being part of the tackle never showed daylight to steal that ball and the end . Why are refs so blind
Barret gave them a lifeline by missing that penalty but still they went on to miss theirs, I feel like that decided the match
First time a World cup winner has a lost a knockout stage and everyone says they still won :)
the best thing to ever happen to ireland, and im an allblacks fan. We were the top team in 07 and lost in the quarters, its how you come back!!
Allblacks turned up when it matters 🎉
The image of the arrogant fella named Andrew Porter at the end of the game warms my heart 😂😂😂
Bro I don’t know half of how to play but it’s so fun to watch
Six60 Don't forget your Roots😀👍
This never gets old on how the ABs silecensed Ireland and its supports in the biggest stage of them all and add misery to the former No 1 Team in the world in 2023 that never made it pass the quaterfinal of the Rugby World Cup.What a ultimate perfomance from the ABs to prove all doubters and the Rugby World to never ever count out a downed ABs coz it will come back like a Roaring Lion and devour Ireland like that😂😂😂
Even though I’m not an ABs supporter, I rooted massively for them in this game, because of how the Irish behaved in their series win in NZ. Watching how shattered POM was after the game, I didn’t rejoice in his misery, because he was really crestfallen, but I remember thinking: “Dude, it’s tough, but you 100% deserve this.” Biggest dose of karma I’ve ever seen in sports. Though I felt sorry for some of the likable Irish players like Keith Earls, Robbie Henshaw, Bundee Aki, and a handful of others. It was an absolutely majestic game, and the margin was narrow. But in the end, the slightly better team won.
Ireland played their best game during the group stages, oh shame!
New Zealand love to bring up Wayne Barnes in the final but forget about this game
As a Kiwi, the clear difference between this game and the final was how the TMO interfered far more in the latter. This game flowed like champagne, whereas the final was a sloppy stop-start affair.
I don't think Barnes is deliberately bad, he just is. Us Irish never have any luck with him, and he rinsed NZ in the finals.
@@barryb90 I don’t think he’s a bad referee I think he calls things very fair when the play is happening for both teams. This one went more New Zealand’s way but the final was pretty even. Ireland unfortunately were outclassed in this game and New Zealand played their best game of rugby in years
@@RO-nr6up yeah Tmo was quite disruptive in the final but they can’t just allow penalties to go unpenalized
@@RO-nr6up South Africa simply outplayed New Zealand in the final it’s no coincidence they won by one point. I think South Africa would win that game no matter what happened even if New Zealand’s try was allowed

Crazy that NZ let Badee Aki go.
He had SBW, Maa Nonu ahead of him for the no.12 spot when he left
@@floydkingi4364 I get that, but SBW was a temporary fad. He was never a long term development because he always followed the money. There was debate about sacrificing the ling term potential of Bandee for the short term option of SBW. Given how it worked out, SBW was the wrong bet to place.
@@MrBreakdownBoyBundi left on his own accord, obviously saw a better future for himself in the NH, personally I rated the guy when he was at the chiefs

You'd like high too if you had puppy eyes.😂
7:50
Who else is back on here after watching Eben's interview 😂
Ireland are a fantastic side but u should never ever count out the all blacks, let alone an all black team with so much experience and proven world class players. Players like Aaron smith, Beauden Barrett and Sam Whitelock all have proven themselves as the best in the world in their positions the past decade and that means something even if they are “past it”
Excellent TMO work
First try for NZ forward pass… but the Kiwis hates the bunker system.
it wasn't a forward pass
Let it go paddy geez
You mean, there are Nancy's out there that like?😢😮😢
13:21 Interesting how Jordie missed a very similar kick to the one that cost them the finals.
The difference is that in this game he didn't have Pieter Steph Du Toit knocking the sonic rings out of him all game long
@blaquenguni9249 one point was the difference. You could say that, if it were 57-0.😂😂😂
why do we need TMO in the highlights its the one time we can skip this blot on our game.
Please put the extended highlights of France vs South Africa 🙏🙏
Done!
That pass to hansen from lowe just before Aaron Smith got carded looked FORWARD

Is south africa the only top tier team in the WC where all players and reserves are actually from the country they represent>
Interesting question - never thought about it like that!!!
South Africa has an embarrasment of talent in this sport. Seriously. I know a handful of guys that could have represented SA at national level in 7's or Union but the competition for places is so tough. Most go to Europe to ply their trade their. Also the money is much better too lol
SA hardly set the world on fire at Super Rugby and or Tri Nations tho.@blackpanda7612
Their Stormers team was amazing in URC final!
If the World Cup were to be replayed in a month's time, Ireland and France could be in the final, so close were the margins.
But it won't...and the rest is history
"could could could" but in reality we would still win it cause then we would have had Marx, AM and Loodt available....😂😂😂
@@DRIVER-SEBVET To win a World Cup you need a good team, need some 50/50 decisions go your way, get the bounce of the ball, plus you need some luck.
@@rooftile883 If it was replayed, both Ire and Fra would lose by more I'm afraid. SH giants just possess such mental fortitude in knockout games.

First time rewatching this from South Africa. Now I am not sure Whitelock released after the tackle to steal the ball, I don't see any daylight before he rips?
Still hurts 😢😮😢
But for TMO and unjust "high tackle" decision on the part of the referee, the All Blacks could have easily won the final.
How is a shoulder to the face unjust? I’ll wait
Some cheese??? Frizell deliberately took out Bongi - that is the dirtiest play ever - clear for all to see - he wasn't pushed - there wasn't anyone near - he wasn't pulled - he was fully balanced on his feet - he went to the SIDe of the break down and simply threw his weight on Bongi's leg whilst taking hold of his neck in a wrestler's hold. Other than that - Barret kicked exactly the same penalty from just inside the half of the Boks as he did here - @13:18 - with exactly the same result - he did not learn from this mistake here in this game. They deserved to lose.
Toelalatata toelakatata
@@kevinrtres The bunker waited until 9 minutes and 50 odd seconds to tell Barnes that Frizell would remain a yellow. They knew what it was but were too scared to give a red that early in the game. Meant that when Cane put his shoulder into Kriel's head it was always going to be a red even though on a good day you could find enough mitigating circumstances to leave that one as a yellow in a RWC final. Agree that Frizell was much dirtier than Cane.
@@Narapoia1 Interesting that thought. It also crossed my mind in the exact same way!
Heck Barnes went out of his way to help Ireland.
