Match Commentary
"That's a huge result for Wales. Jonathan Davies and Alun Wyn Jones collapsed to the turf at full-time, such was the effort they, and the whole Wales 23, put in today in stopping the Springboks. Jesse Kriel's try in the corner made things interesting, and it got rather tense for a while here in Cardiff, but then Dan Biggar came on to guide the Welsh to a deserved victory, and their first ever November sweep. South Africa were out of sorts, but the strength of this Wales squad cannot be underestimated heading into a massive 2019."
"Stirring stuff from Wales so far. They've met the Springboks head on and are bossing the physical battle. The first-half damage was done in a sublime 10-minute spell thanks to tries from Tomas Francis and Liam Williams, one powered over the line thanks to a strong run from Ellis Jenkins, the other wonderfully crafted by Gareth Anscombe. Also, what a half for Aaron Wainwright -- who was called up to the bench in the last minute and has had an enormous contribution so far. There was late drama as Jenkins, somehow, stopped Jesse Kriel from grounding the ball after he crossed the line. The Principality Stadium erupted as the home side kept their opponents at bay."
Yes, sir!
