All Blacks may be confusing themselves There is an argument, unsurprisingly coming from within the ranks of the English media, that the close call will boost England, and ditto the Boks. There is some merit in the argument, for the winning of the World Cup will come down to a test of nerve in the knockout stages, and it can’t harm a team to go into that phase with experience of winning a close one.
