With the Rugby Championship title race hanging in the balance, the Springboks delivered a second-half masterclass in Durban against Los Pumas.

After a tense first 40 minutes ended 25–23, South Africa erupted with 42 unanswered points.

Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu was unstoppable, scoring a record-breaking 37 points with a hat-trick, pinpoint kicks, and 134 meters run.

Pieter-Steph du Toit and Manie Libbok added tries as the Bokke overwhelmed Argentina.

Nine tries, relentless pace, and a roaring Kings Park crowd — this was Springboks rugby at its finest.

The bonus-point win puts South Africa right back in the hunt for the Rugby Championship crown.
