The All Blacks hard work has paid off after winning the Web Ellis Cup in this year’s Rugby World Cup.

The All Blacks defeated Australia 34-17.

Captain Richie McCaw said that this is the proudest moment in his Rugby career.

McCaw said that he was not anxious when Pocock and Kuridrani came in for a try each.

He said after 148 tests, he will not call it a day.

Meanwhile, Wallabies Coach Michael Cheika said they have had a great campaign and wanted to continue on that but it was painful for them to not achieve it.

Cheika said he did not leave himself too much to do in the second half.

He said regardless of their loss today, he is still proud of his team.

New Zealand led 16 ‑ 3 at halftime, with Nehe Milner‑Skudder crossing for the game's opening try just before the break.

The Wallabies bravely defied the odds to claw their way back from 21‑3 down to make it 21‑17 in the second half, but it wasn’t good enough.

New Zealand’s tries came from Nehe Milner-Skudder, Ma’a Nonu and Beauden Barrett, while Australia’s tries came from David Pocock and Tevita Kuridrani.

Steve Hansen’s extraordinary side became the first team to win three World Cups, and the first to win consecutive titles.

After missing the 2011 World Cup final through injury, this is the perfect ending for the man of the match Dan Carter.
