Match details
Springboks vs All Blacks — 3rd Test. FNB Stadium (Soccer City), Johannesburg, Saturday 5 September 2026, 17:00 SAST. It is the third of four Tests in the historic series: the All Blacks' first full tour of South Africa in 30 years, with the fourth Test a week later in Baltimore, USA.
What is at stake
The Freedom Cup is on the line and both sides know a 2-1 lead going into the final Test changes everything. The Boks' forward pack vs the All Blacks' backline speed is the series-defining contest, and FNB Stadium's altitude adds a third dimension — the last 20 minutes at 1,600m favour the fitter team.
