NETBALL WORLD CUP
The final was tense throughout and came down to the dying
seconds and just one goal, as the Kiwis prevailed 52-51.
It was the Silver Ferns' fifth world title but their first
since 2003 as they finally ended the Diamonds' dominance.
England clinched bronze with a 58-42 victory over South Africa in their play-off
match earlier on Sunday.
The Roses' win was routine compared with the drama which
followed between the Trans-Tasman rivals who were competing against each other
for the sixth consecutive World Cup final.
In a final that was evenly poised at half-time, New Zealand
came out firing in the third quarter as they powered into a seven-goal lead
with the 8,000-strong crowd behind them.
MY
OPINION
The final was an epic match and
de4served to go down to the wire but England have shown in this campaign that
they can compete with the right people behind them. I don’t think the final
deserved to have a looser
