It was a match and moment that left spectators in awe.

The Springboks found themselves facing a 15-6 early deficit, however, the defending champions showed their mettle in the latter stages of the game.

A crucial try by RG Snyman and Pollard's extraordinary game-winning kick propelled them into their fourth final, where they are set to clash with their time-honored adversaries, New Zealand, next Saturday (21:00).

Here is a collection of images and videos that captured the emotional turmoil of the Boks emphatic victory:
