World Rugby has concluded there is 'insufficient evidence' to suggest that South Africa's Bongi Mbonambi racially abused England's Tom Curry during their World Cup semi-final which means he is eligible to play against New Zealand in the Final.

Faf de Klerk and Handre Pollard have been named in South Africa's starting side for Saturday's Rugby World Cup final against New Zealand, who bring in Brodie Retallick for Sam Whitelock. The return of half-backs De Klerk and Pollard are South Africa's only two changes from the side which started in Saturday's 16-15 semi-final win against England.
