The game will not be re-scheduled – both teams will receive two points each for a 0-0 draw.

The All Blacks are heavy favourites to win the tournament and have rubber-stamped qualification due to the cancellation.

However, Italy needed to win this game to stand a chance of progressing beyond Pool B and have been eliminated from the tournament.

South Africa's place in the next round has been confirmed as a result.
