  "account": "CAPE TOWN, South Africa — The Springboks stunned the All Blacks for the first time in 2026, defeating them 33-26 and splitting their four-test series 1-1 at Cape Town Stadium on Saturday. South Africa, who had dominated the first half, scored all three of their tries before halftime, building a 24-14 lead. New Zealand managed to score four tries themselves, but struggled with the Springbok defense, breakdowns, and lineouts. The key moment came when South Africa's lineout mauls helped them secure two tries and disrupt the All Blacks' lineouts. Coach Rassie Erasmus made crucial changes in the second half, bringing on Malcolm Marx and Ox Nché to bolster the team. Despite a late response from the All Blacks, including a try by Leroy Carter, South Africa held on to claim their first win of the year and even the series.",
