Springboks edge out Wales in Cardiff

South Africa got the job done but were made to struggle for their 23-18 Autumn Nations Series victory against Wales at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.

It was the Springboks’ first win in Cardiff since 2013, but they did not secure it until replacement hooker Malcolm Marx scored a 73rd-minute try and Elton Jantjies kicked a penalty.

Despite being without injured captain Alun Wyn Jones and a host of other absent British and Irish Lions, Wales delivered a towering performance, with fly-half Dan Bigger kicking six penalties.
