All right. All right. That's enough. All right.
Madiba, this is the delegation-
I know who this is.
Welcome.
Thank you for coming so far to see me. - Thank you. How do you do?
- I'm fine. Welcome. - Thank you very much.
Ladies and gentlemen please apologize. The game is delayed.
...in the semifinals, South Africa against France...
- This is it. Let's go. - All right. Go.
...International business alliances.
Strong industries have developed in shipping and computers
Our information...
Please, excuse me.
Yes, Mr. President, of course.
Gentlemen, let us continue in ten minutes...
This is good. Very good!
So, who is our next opponent?
The All Blacks play England tomorrow. Then, we'll know.
I see.
You will make sure that my schedule is free for the entire match.
Oh, yes, Tata.
This is good. This is very good.
...black team mates come to congratulate big fella yet again.
Lomu is becoming one of the most intimidating...
Why don't we do a little work while we're here.
Just enjoy the rugby.
...World Cup semifinal against England.
So, let me understand this.
The All Blacks are killing a team that thrashed us last year?
Thanks for reminding me.
Yet again.
We're gonna really have to tackle a lot better than the English are.
- Yeah. That's sure. - That's sure.
- We do. - Ja.
That is Lomu's second try this afternoon.
This guy really likes scoring tries against the English...
Are those the judicial appointments for the Free State?
They'll keep until after the match.
Here's the kick.
I'm the President, you know.
And the conversion is good!
Are you watching this guy? He's about your size, but...
How much does this Lomu weigh?
- 120 kilos. - Shit.
- Same as me. - Yeah, but you're slow.
Lomu looks for contact every time he gets the ball.
Ja.
It's good for us.
Ja.
I will break my arm, my leg, my neck,
but I will not let that frickin' guy go.
With you, cappie.
- With you, captain. - With you, cappie. With you.
...when you pass it, yeah? Grab this.
Run!
Yes.
Still think I'm wasting my time with the rugby?
...he's in the clear and he will...
Brenda, please tell the Minister of Sport
I'd like the full report on the All Blacks.
This rugby, it's still strictly political?
Oh yes. Oh yes. Of course.
Hello, Francois.
Don't lose them. I won't be able to get more.
Thanks, Francois.
Me, mom, Nerine- wait,
and the fourth?
Who's it for?
www.frendz4m.com
The All Blacks beat Ireland 43 to 19.
I see.
They beat Wales 34 to 9.
I see.
They beat Japan 145 to 17.
145 points, in one match?
It's a new international record.
They beat Scotland 48 to 30 in the quarter finals.
You saw the match with England.
Yes.
45 to 29. And it was not that close.
They seem unstoppable.
If the opposing teams play them straight up, Jonah Lomu runs wild.
If they focus on Lomu, that leaves others free.
And, also, there's the business of the haka.
A Maori war dance. Yes.
It's very powerful.
My sources tell me that half of the All Black matches
are won before the first whistle, because of it.
How can we beat them?
I have the coach's number. Maybe, you could call him and ask.
No. no. I don't want to distract their focus, even for one minute.
But, how can we win?
Maybe we won't. They're favored two-to-one.
Madiba, we've already exceeded all expectations. On and off the field.
It's not enough. Not now. Not so close.
This country is hungry for greatness.
I brought one of your mom's protein shakes.
Thinking about tomorrow?
No,
tomorrow's taken care of,
one way or another.
I'm was thinking about how you spend 30 years in a tiny cell,
and come out ready to forgive the people who put you there.
Go home, man. There's nothing more you can do today.
Have I ever mentioned to you that I hate rugby?
Once or twice, yes.
I just want to get him through tomorrow, safely.
That's all.
We all do.
The tickets sold out long before the team became popular.
it's not exactly going to be the rainbow nation out there.
And that's the reality.
Now, all it takes is one idiot trying to make a statement,
or one fool who thinks that he hears god speaking to him through the radio.
It's happened before!
But not today.
Not on our watch.
And not today.
Hey. Flag face. Flag face.
- Flag face? - Bugger off!
We're at Ellis Park on this historic day,
where, even this early, crowd expectation is at fever pitch...
because their beloved green and gold
have somehow managed to defy all expectations.
But now they come up against a team unlike any they have played before.
These All Blacks are possibly one of the greatest international sides ever,
with a player in Jonah Lomu who is as dominant as any
this correspondent has ever seen.
Madiba!
Final approach, Captain.
Let it be noted that I'm taking control of the aircraft.
Duly noted.
I take full responsibility for what happens from now on.
Do you see that jet, to the east?
Did they get clearance for this?
Not from us.
Where is he?
VIP box.
Get him out of there. Now.
No time.
What the hell was that?
- Boka! - Yeah.
Come on!
...World Cup Finals.
Please welcome the South African Springboks!
And New Zealand; All blacks.
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome
The President of the Republic of South Africa
Mr. Nelson Mandela.
Dr. Nelson Mandela, the President of South Africa
in the rugby jersey with the number six on its back...
The All Black's won't like it.
Francois, your country is very proud of you.
Thank you, sir.
- Good luck. - Thank you.
- ... Mr. President. - Mr. President. Thank you.
Good luck to you, son.
Both teams are out there with Dr. Mandela.
Chester, I want you to know that your whole country is supporting you.
- Good luck. - Thank you, sir.
- Good luck, son. - Thank you.
What a dramatic moment here in Ellis park.
I don't think I've ever seen so many flags in one stadium.
- Hi. - Their captain.
I'm honored, sir.
Mr. President...
- Yonah? - Yes. Jonah, sir.
- Nice to see you. - Yes. Thank you.
I'm a little afraid of you.
...and that's big Jonah Lomu.
A big day for him.
- We're all together now. - Yes.
Good luck.
"Nelson... Nelson... Nelson... "
"NELSON... NELSON... NELSON... "
...Dr. Mandela just lifting his cap to the sixty-two thousand people...
"Nelson... Nelson... Nelson... "
...wonderful aerial shot of...
...Ellis Park Stadium...
Very emotional moment for both teams.
Ladies and gentlemen, the national anthem of South Africa.
South African National Anthems.
What an unbelievable spectacular year in Johannesburg.
Perhaps we should make a little wager.
All your gold, for all our sheep?
Well I was thinking more along the lines of a case of wine.
The celebration's over. We now come to the big game.
And we'll wait the Haka of New Zealand.
¶ Kia rite! ¶
¶ Kia mau! ¶

¶ hi! ¶
...that's the challenge, laid down by the Maoris before going into battle...
New Zealand as best team gets in the final of the tournament.
- Hey! Get out of here. - Hey!
Put it down!
...knocked him down and stole the ball...
...put into play by New Zealand.
Now here's the chance for them on the outside...
Engate.
Right.
Come, boys.
What the heck are we doing? Lomu is killing us.
Forwards, we must start scrumming.
We must disrupt them at the first phase.
We can't allow Lomu to get the ball and space.
He's frickin' killing us.
But listen, if Lomu gets the ball, whoever is there... James, Joost...
Hit the fucking guy. Hold on to him. Hold it.
Help will come. Help will be there.
...the big Jonah Lomu and give him some time and space...
Oh! No!
...most of the opportunities have gone New Zealand's way...
Go. Go. Go!
Listen up. Captain...
...first blood to New Zealand...
Empty. Thirty four.
...such an important kick for New Zealand...
...score now: New Zealand 6, South Africa 3.
...It's a great kick from...
Thirteen minutes gone now. Six points to three New Zealand beats South Africa.
Come on!
...twenty-one minutes gone now...
...South Africa goes into the lead for the first time in the match...
...advantage for South Africa 9:6...
...attempt for New Zealand...
Boys. It's all right.
Unsuccessful kick. The score remains 9:9.
...that's closing score nine point all.
And now, there will be a five minutes' break.
Twenty final minutes in the World Cup. We're gonna have an extra time.
Extra time.
So, what does this mean?
Extra time. Twenty minutes.
I don't think I can take it.
Oh, this will be a test of great character,
in these last twenty minutes of this match.
Who's the fittest team on this field?
Engate.
Right.
New Zealand 12, South Africa 9.
in reserve, because it was... High, high, above the crossbar.
Penalty against green.
Francois...
Too many guys off their feet.
- Oh, yes. - Speak to your team.
Okay.
Heads up!
Look in my eyes.
Do you hear?
Listen to your country.
Seven minutes.
Defense, defense, defense!
This is it!
This is our destiny.
Come on.
- Come. - Come on.
How long before the end?
Seven minutes.
This will be the longest seven minutes for both two teams.
...can hear the big man coming...
Now!
www.frendz4m.com
...has he got 'em?...
...great play there...
Chester, will you lead us in a prayer?
Thanks Lord, for getting us into this final.
Thanks for no serious injuries.
and most of all, thanks for the win, amen.
"Amen"
Good game.
Francois... a few words...
Great game, but you could've done it
without the amazing support of 63,000 South Africans here today.
Ja. We didn't have the support of 63,000 South Africans.
We had the support of 43 million South Africans.
I want to thank you for what you have done to our country.
No, Mr. President, thank you for what you have done for our country.
- This route is crowded. - Okay, change to route C.
Okay.
It's no hurry.
No hurry at all.
Madiba says there's no need to hurry.
"I thank whatever gods may be. "
"For my unconquerable soul. "
"I am the master of my fate. "
"I am the captain of my soul. "
