Watch again: South Africa’s 2023 Rugby World Cup final against New Zealand

World Rugby has made the full 2023 Rugby World Cup final between South Africa and New Zealand available in a new anniversary upload. The video was published on 28 October 2026, three years after the original final.

The official replay revisits the match in which the Springboks became the first team to win the men’s Rugby World Cup four times. It is historical footage, not a new meeting between the teams or a live broadcast.

A full-match replay provides room to follow the phases between the familiar highlights: changes in territory, the use of possession and the decisions made as the contest develops. Those passages help explain why a final is more than its decisive moments.

The embedded production belongs to World Rugby. Supporters can watch the original coverage above and browse the related sports videos for more rugby and international competition. The original match year is retained in the title so that the upload date does not obscure the event being shown.
