Overview
- South Africa overwhelmed Argentina 67-30 in Durban to take the Rugby Championship lead heading into the final round.
- Fly-half Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu scored 37 points with a hat-trick plus kicks, eclipsing Percy Montgomery’s South African Test record of 35.
- Early errors kept the match tight, including a Cheslin Kolbe in-goal drop-kick seized by Santiago Chocobares and a penalty try after Malcolm Marx’s yellow card.
- Rassie Erasmus labeled Kolbe’s mistake a “brain fart” and praised the team’s response, highlighting individual brilliance that transformed the second half.
- The sides meet again at Twickenham next weekend, and a Springbok bonus-point victory would secure a second successive Rugby Championship crown.
