24-Oct S.AFRICA 44 defeated ENGLAND 21  
scorers : S.AFRICA vd Westhuizen, Rossouw tries: de Beer conv(2), pen(5), dg(5).
scorers : ENGLAND Grayson pen(6), Wilkinson.
comments : This game will always be remembered for Jannie de Beer's 5 drop goals - a world record. After many days of meticulous planning, the Springboks sprung their clever plan to make room for de Beer and his super boot. The Enlgish could only watch as the game slipped from their grasp as de Beer kicked his drop goals between the 43rd and 74th minutes. The 'boks were ecstatic and faced the Aussies in a semi final.
referee: J.Fleming(Scot) crowd: 75,000 half time: ( 16 - 12 )
