South Africa v Argentina live: Score and updates as Springboks look to seize control of Rugby Championship

We have a TMO intervention – Matera gets pinged for a high tackle on Wiese earlier in the play, so it sets up a kick at goal for Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu.

To the right of the sticks but not particularly long range and the Springboks fly half bangs it through. Six points apiece as we approach the end of the the first quarter.

Etzebeth tries to snaffle a breakdown turnover from the kick-off and although he doesn’t succeed, he disrupts Argentina and they give the ball back to the hosts shortly after.

A couple of phases before Feinberg-Mngomezulu sticks up a high bomb towards Hooker who outjumps his opposite number in the 22 but just knocks on as he lands. The try-line was waiting if he grabbed it cleanly.

It’s 44 metres away and bang central for Santiago Carreras. He starts it outside the right post but draws the ball back in and through the sticks.

The Pumas punishing early Boks ill-discipline.

Montoya knocks on in contact, enabling Feinberg-Mngomezulu to push the visitors back to halfway but prop Venter is caught offside to give Argentina another shot at the posts from long range…

Another scrum, this time in Argentina territory and this is an area the Boks will fancy exerting dominance. But this time, South Africa are pinged as it collapses. Referee Angus Gardner had a think about which way to go but pinged Thomas du Toit.

The Pumas have a platform in opposition territory to build from.

A bit of ill-discipline early on from the Springboks and they are pinged again on their own 22.

The Pumas signal for the posts and it’s a simple enough task for Santiago Carreras to slot between the uprights and level the game.

Argentina have a lineout to build from in Boks territory. It’s messy but Molina grabs the loose ball to salvage the situation.

Nice step from Carreras and he pokes a grubber kick through the gap that bounces into touch. Solid lineout by South Africa and they exit well

The kick is from just inside the Argentina half, relatively straight. Lovely strike from Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu – sails between the posts with plenty to spare.

Springboks first on the board thanks to their scrum dominance

Springboks win an early scrum right on halfway and the pack makes a bit of a statement with a drive that splinters the Pumas forwards. But it comes before the ball is fed, so we’ve got a reset.

Argentina have a 20-odd kg weight advantage but they give away a penalty second time around and South Africa attack with freedom, Feinberg-Mngomezulu chipping to Kolbe out wide before the fly half hacks through the middle a couple of times but Cruz Mallia gratefully grabs the second of those.

Boks will go for the posts

Underway in Durban as Santiago Carreras kicks off into the afternoon sky. What do the Springboks have in store for us this week?
