Springboks beat All Blacks again to clinch tour series
Scrumhalf van den Berg sold a dummy to dart over from a line-out maul in the 22nd minute and see South Africa’s lead extend to 10 points, but momentum quickly shifted back New Zealand’s way, and after repeated battering at Bok defences through 32 phases, Jordan burst over to extend his try-scoring record to 55 and reduce the halftime score to 17-14.
South Africa put over an early penalty, but the first try of the game went to the Kiwis, with Taylor bursting over from close range in the eighth minute after a wave of attacks, characterised by swift short passes and slick handling skills as the All Blacks got a quick ball from the ruck.
