Wales vs South Africa

Lake powers over from a maul, pressure on Biggar to potentially seal Wales' first ever win on South African soil. The pressure seeps through, he clips it wide.

It's been scrappy from the hosts with another spillage from South Africa leading to the first scrum. The pandemic has prevented them from attending matches in South Africa of late. South Africa had a prolonged time in attack but Wales have once again forced the hosts to kick the ball away. Ten of the World Cup squad start against Wales in Pretoria. South Africa win it back as Hardy delays his put in, Kolisi pushed the scrum-half afterwards with Biggar having a few choice words for his opposition skipper. The kick from Jantjies goes dead though, the fly-half having a rough start to this, and so there's a Wales scrum. South Africa win a penalty as Elias holds on at the breakdown. Wales had full control in the first half, blowing South Africa away. South Africa are on the hunt for another try now, it is tense in Pretoria! Kolbe knocked the ball forward but the ref was playing an advantage in South Africa's favour. South Africa defend it perfectly though as they push them into touch. Kolbe made a great break and South Africa could taste blood.

This is a role the former skipper could get used to. “Tommy Turnover” had an excellent start in a red shirt. Another player welcomed back to the Wales setup with open arms. With his telescopic limbs, he did a stellar job of halting the Boks from getting going. There is nothing more powerful than a Springbok maul, but Adam Beard fears them not. Lewis’ selection raised a few eyebrows, but much like Gareth Thomas, he resisted the force of Ox Nche. Had to play virtually 80 minutes, which no tighthead wants. Rowlands hasn’t had many opportunities in open space for Wales, until today. Was substituted at the right time. Ended the game with a yellow card, puzzled though he may look. Copped a yellow card to stop his team from conceding on half-time. 4. Will Rowlands – 7 10. Dan Biggar – 7

We were on the wrong side of the referee, and we need to go away and look at the penalties we conceded and the yellow cards. “We have got to look at the positive things we did in this game. We set ourselves up to win the game, so we did a lot of very good things.
