South Africa gets hero's welcome at home

The Rugby World Cup champions are back home.

South Africa's national team arrived in Johannesburg on Tuesday night to a hero's welcome.

Siya Kolisi became the first black South African captain to lift the William Webb Ellis Trophy when he led his side to a crushing victory over England in Saturday's final.

He said their triumph was "for all South Africans" who "make our wonderful country an even better place".
