Brewer battled bravely with an ankle injury but eventually made way for Joseph.

Fast forward to 2019 and Joseph will coach Japan at the World Cup...

We're back for the second half folks!

In those days, the half-time break was only five minutes and the players remained on the field.

Just before half-time, New Zealand flank Mike Brewer is again down receiving attention.

Jamie Joseph is eager to get on but it seems that Brewer will soldier on for the moment...

New Zealand bungle a lineout in a great attacking position on the Springbok tryline.

Stransky then brings relief with a big punt up-field.

The All Blacks are making errors at vital moments...

More pressure on the All Blacks as Van der Westhuizen chips in behind to keep the visitors pegged back in their own 22m area.

Another power scrum then yields a penalty and a kickable penalty for Stransky...

The powerful Bok scrum had the All Blacks under pressure and Kruger went over the tryline after a 'pick and go', only for the referee Ed Morrison to determine he was held up.

In later years, Morrison conceded that Kruger in all likelihood did score.

"Nobody said anything, because they won!" Morrison chuckled in 2015 during an interview marking the 20-year anniversary of the game.

It sure looks like a try on replays!

What a tackle from Joost that was!

12'- Oh so close!

Jonah Lomu barges through the Springbok midfield and appears to be on his way to the tryline, but Joost van der Westhuizen goes low to stop him in his tracks.

DID YOU KNOW?

New Zealand flyhalf Andrew Mehrtens was born in Durban, South Africa.

As can be seen in the picture below, New Zealand's Haka will always be remembered for Kobus Wiese and Jonah Lomu almost making contact.

There's no way this will happen in the modern era as the All Blacks are instructed to perform the Haka from several yards away...

Incredible pre-match scenes with the Boeing flying over Ellis Park shortly before kick-off, as well as New Zealand's intimidating Haka...
