This is a very awkward opinion, because only one team tried really to produce something, whereas the other one was sometimes "rotting" the attacks of the other and scored a stunning amount of points just by benefiting of silly errors. During the 2nd half, the game was too much "closed". The real best game of this world cup was Ireland vs NZ : a bloody suspense too, pleasant attacking sequences from both sides, good passages of play from 1st to 80th (85th) minute, and above all, a consistent refering in the rucks.

As a French supporter it's frustrating to have such a nicely built-up side, maybe the best french side so far, and still seeing them fall short. No disrespect to the other top 4 teams but I think this was the real RWC final, and it happened way too early in the competition. I question myself : why should the RWC draw take place 2 years prior to the event ? With a totally different WR ranking ? It had us see the top 4 teams in 2 groups, and led us to a really bizarre QF draw. (WAL v ARG ? Really ?) Just like the french football team built on the euro 2016 final loss, I believe Galthié, Dupont, Alldritt and the u20RWC champs coming up will raise the bar even more and build a French Rugby Legacy like never before. We have a great squad coming and one day it will be us.

@Narapoia1 Ай бұрын

It is the best French team in my lifetime, and at a time where NZ are slightly off their best they just ran into unfortunately the best Bok side of my lifetime. Realistically I think SA were the only team that could have beat you in the WC, maybe Ireland as well but it would have to have been a very lucky day for them (as it was for us in some ways). It should have been the final, what an unbelievable match, and of all the NH teams I would have been happiest for France to win it if it wasn't us. This is a young team as well, so hopefully they bounce back. But I also hope we can do 3 in a row in 2027!

Fascinating how SA exposed the French under the high ball twice in the first half both times resulting in tries. Such contestable 50/50 kicks had to be dealt with better by ideally the fullback or the French left winger. SA’s 3rd try to Kolbie also resulted from pressure creating a turnover and brilliant awareness of space by Jesse Kriel.

16:11 and 16:50 Danty is clearly hit in the face by Du Toit (either head to head or shoulder to head). He is the vulnerable player as he is on the ground, and we see that he is getting treated for a head injury. How did the TMO miss that and how was that not a red I don't know. Cherry on the cake Dupont asks the referee to review the play and he denies him that request even though there was clearly foul play

@williamdarlow8773 2 ай бұрын

O'Keefe clearly says "Do not ask me for that, TMO checked, no foul play", either the TMO did not check (I do not blame them it was hard to spot on live play) and O'Keefe is lying (we do not hear him have a conversation we the TMO regarding that play), or the TMO is blatantly incompetent. In any case the play should have been reviewed, we have got all the time in the world no need to rush and instead it was rushed the french captain was not heard and obviously this was controversial

Thank you, World Rugby. Now, please upload the match when we (Springboks) faced Ireland. I love that match more than this one because although we lost and I was fuming at the time. The quality of play and the intensity was unreal. Yes, we missed crucial kicks at goal, and Ireland's lineout wasn't functioning, but apart from that, the game was insanely good. People (except Irish fans) forget this game because it didn't have a lot on the line, but in my opinion, it was the best game of the World Cup.

France beat NZ in the opening match. NZ definitely did not want to face France in the final - World rugby's solution - put in a NZ ref, 2 NZ touch judges and a NZ TMO for this match. WTF were they thinking !!! I am a Saffer (Ex Springbok) living in France, so I did not care who won - but the reffing in this match was beyond shocking - All I (and the rest of the rugby world) wanted to see was the two best teams in the world play under impartial reffing - how could the 4 NZ match officials be impartial when the result of this game decides who plays against NZ later !!! There is a lot of criticism in the comments below of the French crowd - they were not booing the Boks, they were booing the ref. Some of the shocking decisions that changed the course of the match:- 1/ at 1.11 green clearly puts the ball out - Blue 5 m attacking scrum, not green goal line kick. 2/ at 6.16 green 4 knocks the ball down - yellow card and blue penalty. 3/ 7.46 blue player knocked by green 4 before ball is down - not green try but blue penalty 4/ 17.21 green 13 leads with left arm into blue players throat - nothing happens and green score - no try but blue penalty 5/ 24.02 green 13 leads with his elbow at face level - again nothing happens. 6/ 28.45 green holds on to the ball - blue penalty 5m out. 7/ 121.47 - green hand on the ground - not a penalty for green - 3 points given by ref to green World rugby - you need to do something about the quality and consistency of your refs and you seriously need to review what refs you assign to what games - try - if you can - to be impartial. Hats off to all the players on the field - you guys were beyond awesome.
