Today marks 30 years since the South African national rugby team won the Rugby World Cup at Ellis Park in Johannesburg, beating New Zealand 15-12 in the final.
The victory became significant because it was the first sporting success for a newly democratic South Africa.
The win was said to help unify the country and give the rainbow nation a “feel-good” moment to lean on for years to come.
Thirty years on, everybody involved in rugby recalls the 1995 World Cup win as a watershed moment that kick-started sporting success in South Africa.
With the odds stacked against them, the 1995 Springboks pull off the seemingly impossible.
