Well, it hasn't been a classic so far but it has been an incredibly physical game between arguably the two most powerful sides in the world.
England were the favourites coming into the game, but have played well below their ability.
South Africa haven't been brilliant but have been the better of the two sides and the game has certainly suited them more so far.
Read some of the Twitter reactions from the first half of the Rugby World Cup final below.
Shades of Ringrose and Henshaw smashing heads at the start of the #AllBlacks quarter-final there, Sinckler gone after colliding with Itoje’s elbow in a tackle! Massive blow for England. #RWCfinal

Atmosphere like a super-charged Twickenham. White-shirted supporters completely dominating the stands #RWCFinal

Three players off injured in 21 mins.
I'd last about 10 seconds on there.

As someone who worked hard to get to a World Cup final & get knocked out early in the game, it’s such a tough thing to take. Obviously I know how tough the family take it too. Hoping all is as good as can be #RWCFinal
