New Zealand have been crowned Cape Town Sevens champions after beating the Blitzboks 7-5 at Cape Town Stadium on Sunday.

New Zealand exacted revenge for last week's Dubai Sevens final loss by narrowly beating the Blitzboks 7-5 on Sunday to be crowned Cape Town Sevens champions.

It was a high-intensity final, with quality performances from both sides. The Blitzboks kept knocking on New Zealand's door in the first half, with no luck. The match went to half time with no points on the board. With four minutes left, play had to be stopped following a scuffle between both sets of players. After match officials consulted with the touchline official, both captains were issued with warnings.
