South Africa defeats Wales 43-0 for a second time in the Nations Championship, with the match played in Durban. The Springboks score seven tries and keep Wales scoreless, extending their unbeaten record in the tournament and making it a perfect three wins from three. Multiple reports describe South Africa’s dominance on the scoreboard, while noting that the scoreline does not fully reflect the extent of their control during the game. Wales does not register any points and is again unable to break down the Springboks’ attack or defence. One outlet also highlights that South Africa “should” have scored more tries, citing that their try-scoring output was below what their overall performance suggested, despite having seven different players cross the line. Other coverage contrasts Wales’ showing with previous meetings, including South Africa’s earlier 73-0 win against Wales in Cardiff last November, and says Wales still outperforms that earlier performance against the all-local team but cannot change the result against South Africa. The result keeps the Springboks firmly ahead in the Nations Championship standings.
