After winning the first World Cup 24 years prior, the hosts New Zealand finally came back to the summit of world rugby as they won a low-scoring final 8-7 against France in Auckland. Australia were third, losing to the eventual champions in the semi-finals after beating the current champions South Africa in the quarter-finals, with a similarly close 21-18 win over Wales.
