Springboks eye unbeaten UK tour after beating England 29-20


1 minute

Four-time Rugby World Cup Champions South Africa are on course for an unbeaten end-of-year tour of the United Kingdom.

The Springboks beat England 29-20 at Twickenham in London on Saturday evening – the second victory of their three-match tour.

They led 19-18 at halftime and outscored their hosts by four tries to two.

Right wing Cheslin Kolbe was a thorn in England’s side, scoring two tries and being named man of the match.

While the Springboks were once again guilty of too many unforced errors and allowing the English ball carriers far too much space at times, the performance was England’s best of the Autumn International season.

The Springboks complete their tour with a test match against Wales in Cardiff next Saturday.
