Box kick from de Klerk, Moriarty runs it back

Biggar gets the second half underway, taken by Vermeulen who runs it up

The sides are out for the second half

In the entire history of the RWC only 11 matches have ended up tryless, two of those have been semi-finals: Scotland v England in 1991 and Wallabies v Springboks in 1999, and both the finals that South Africa have won, in 1995 and 2007.

Take aways from the first half. Ths Springboks back field don’t put Faf back to catch

2nd Boks must counter a bit - Wales kick a bit lose at times and need to make good decisions when to counter and have a go to punish them - when South Africa maul their backs are tight if they play out the back they could score.

South Africa take a slender 9-6 lead over Wales into halftime. The battle of the boot dominated the first half, with the Springboks kicking three successful penalties to the two of Wales in what can best be described as an arm wrestle between the two sides.

Gareth Davies puts it into touch and that will be halftime
