What happened
South Africa was no longer looking down the rankings on the rest of world rugby on Monday for the first time in almost a year. New Zealand officially replaced the two-time world champion Springboks as the No. 1 men's test side after the shocking 33-16 win last Saturday at the launch of their first four-test series in 50 years. Lose again and South Africa can no longer win a series it started as the heavy favorite.
