The second half started well enough for the Boks, with another penalty extending their lead, but straight from the restart a charge down from All Blacks lock Fabian Holland, who looked suspiciously offside, put them ahead 19-16 in the 48th minute.“We were under the pump a fair bit (in the first half), down on the penalty count and we gave away some, not-smart penalties.

All Blacks pull away A 58th minute score to flank Luke Jacobson gave the All Blacks breathing room, two yellow cards within two minutes to Marco van Staden and Cobus Reinach reduced the Boks to 13 men, and a second try to wing Will Jordan in the 74th minute sealed the result for the buoyant New Zealanders.
