Despite some dubious calls from Dickson, Argentina were their own worst enemies, only managing three points from the boot of fly-half Domingo Miotti in the first half. Indeed, it was not until the second half that the Springboks managed to cross the whitewash, after five penalties from fly-half Handre Pollard established a 15-3 half-time lead. Their lack of threat outside of their rampaging pack might provide further food for thought, too. With 79 minutes played, South Africa led the Pumas 29-3 and were never in any danger of losing, but their inability to secure a bonus point against a mediocre Argentina side that had been pummeled by the whistle of the English referee, Karl Dickson, should come as a minor concern. South Africa and Argentina reprised their roles from a week previous to do battle once more before the tournament's enforced hiatus and, once again, the world champion Springboks came out on top.īut this staccato affair was not quite as plain sailing for Rassie Erasmus' side as the scoreline might suggest.
