“I am very overwhelmed and really haven’t got the words to express the feeling at the moment, it is one other game but it’s a big game for us. Winning the gold is massive.”

This is New Zealand’s 11th World title but fifth since 2003.

Meanwhile, England finished third after they defeated South Africa 58-42.
