PARIS - The Springboks are one match away from becoming the first nation with four Webb Ellis trophies.
They take on fellow three-time winners the All Blacks in the final in Paris this Saturday.
Coach Jacques Nienaber says the game has evolved immensely since South Africa’s first World Cup win over New Zealand in 1995.
"If you look at past games, it is always tight and this one is going to be tight. It's going to be a grind," he said.
