En la apertura de la Rugby Championship 2022, Los Springboks vencieron a Nueva Zelanda por 26-10 rompiendo así una racha de ocho años sin ganarle de local.
La Rugby Championship 2022 arranco con un triunfo de Sudáfrica ante Nueva Zelanda, resultado que el seleccionado sudafricano no conseguía hace 8 temporadas.
El 26 a 16 conseguido en el estadio Mbombela fue el corolario de un partido, intenso y con mucho rose, y en el cual los anfitriones lograron imponer su juego y aprovechar los desatinos poco comunes de los hombres de negro.
