Boks snare sluggish Pumas in Gqeberha
Irish Lions, Jacques Nienaber had given his second-stringers the important mission of making sure the Boks got off to a winning start.
The 10 changes to the hosts’ starting line-up – 13 overall in the match-day 23 – from the team that played the last test against the Lions understandably rendered their execution a little disjointed at times. Winger Fassi scored his second test try in his second international from a kick-pass by Jantjies, and showed incredible poise juggling the ball after it had bounced with pressure from opposite number Bautista Delguy.
