England was hampered by South African bowlers in the second inning and was eventually bowled out for 149, handing Ben Stokes his first defeat as England's full-time Test captain.
South Africa's Nortje ripped the heart out of the batting with a three-wicket burst after lunch, finishing with six scalps, while Rabada finished with match statistics of 7 for 79.
