4 October 2014: Ellis Park South Africa 27 New Zealand 25

Pat Lambie’s (right) 55m penalty on full time to beat the All Blacks 2725 at Ellis Park in 2014 was a thrilling conclusion to a dazzling Test match that was full of intensity and end-to-end action, ending a 22-match unbeaten run for New Zealand, one short of their own world record, and giving Heyneke Meyer’s Springboks their first win in three years against their great rivals.

It came after a pulsating All Blacks comeback from 11 points down saw them take a 25-24 lead. The Springboks had thrown the ball around in the first half and scored three tries, but New Zealand came roaring back to make for a special Test match which saw South Africa find the balance between structured play and some cracking attacking bursts from turnover ball.
