The scores were level at halftime and after the third quarter before South Africa opened up a bit of a gap in the final quarter to clinch victory. The Proteas, ranked fifth in the world, are the only unbeaten side in the Four Nations tournament after also beating Uganda 75-40 in their opening match.
