  1. WATCH: Horne try pegs South Africa back

    And this was Scotland's reply...

  2. WATCH: Kriel opens scoring against Scotland

    If you missed it, or fancy seeing it again, have a gander at the first try of this entertaining encounter.

  3. 'Great to see something inventive'

    Scotland 17-17 South Africa

    Chris Paterson
    Former Scotland international on BBC Two

    So often we see routine line-outs, but that's brilliant from Scotland. Well done to forwards coach Danny Wilson and Gregor Townsend, it's great to see something inventive.

    Try - Scotland 17-17 South Africa (Watson)

    Another brilliant bit of invention from Scotland, this time at the line-out. Stuart McInally feigns to throw long but instead goes short to the unmarked Hamish Watson, who has the simple task of plunging over.

    Greig Laidlaw adds the conversion from wide out, and suddenly Scotland are level. What a game!

  5. Scotland 10-17 South Africa

    Hoggy's away! Brilliant bit of counter-attacking play from the Scotland full-back, who sizes up what's in front of him hares up the lefty touchline and kicks ahead, but Willie le Roux is back to kick the bouncing ball in touch.

  6. Scotland 10-17 South Africa

    Scotland not making much headway over a dozen phases against a swarming South Africa defence. Eventually Sean Maitland is pinged for not releasing.

    Bonus for Scotland though - Handre Pollard misses touch with the penalty and Stuart Hogg returns it with interest.

  7. Scotland 10-17 South Africa

    Bit of a murmur from the Murrayfield crowd here as Scotland kick another penalty to touch and win the line-out on the Boks' 22...

  8. Penalty - Scotland 10-17 South Africa (Laidlaw)

    Immediate chance for Scotland to reply, after the Boks are offside from the kick-off. Greig Laidlaw dispenses punishment.

  9. Penalty - Scotland 7-17 South Africa (Pollard)

    Scotland are pinged for collapsing a scrum, and Handre Pollard continues his stunning start to this game. He's scored 12 of the Boks' points so far.

  10. "Unforced silly errors"

    Scotland 7-14 South Africa

    Peter Wright
    Former Scotland prop on BBC Radio Scotland

    "It’s frustrating. It's just unforced silly errors. Poor kick for the first try, poor contact skills for the second."

  11. 'Scotland's midfield defence was all forwards'

    Scotland 0-7 South Africa

    Brian Moore
    Former England hooker on BBC Two

    The problem was when that ball got turned over the midfield defence for Scotland was all forwards, and South Africa took advantage.

  12. try

    Try - Scotland 7-14 South Africa (Pollard)

    Scotland lose the ball out the side of a ruck inside their own half. The Boks are onto it in a flash, and moments later Handre Pollard is dummying his way past a stumbling Sean Maitland for the visitors' second try.

    Pollard adds the conversion and we're rollicking along at a point a minute here.

  13. Try review

    Scotland 7-7 South Africa

    Hang on. Referee Romain Poite wants his TMO to have a look at Jones' initial offload. Fortunately for Scotland, he decides it wasn't forward.

    Greig Laidlaw adds the extras.

  14. try

    Try - Scotland 5-7 South Africa (Horne)

    That's the way to get round it. A couple of wide passes, a brilliant offload out the back from Huw Jones to Sean Maitland, and Jones follows up to send Peter Horne sprinting away to the line.

  15. Scotland 0-7 South Africa

    Huw Jones escapes the first tackler and has a little half-break, before being collared by Springboks lock RG Snyman.

    Scotland are struggling to find a way through this blitz defence at the moment.

  16. 'Incredible scramble defence'

    Scotland 0-7 South Africa

    Chris Paterson
    Former Scotland international on BBC Two

    That's a try-saving tackle from Greig Laidlaw, it was incredible scramble defence from Scotland and they win the penalty.

  17. Scotland 0-7 South Africa

    A loose kick from Finn Russell goes straight to Willie le Roux, who feeds winger Sbu Nkosi to put the Boks within sight of the Scotland line again.

    Hooker Malcolm Marx is denied by a brilliant last-ditch tackle from Greig Laidlaw - I think? - and Scotland win a relieving penalty. Major let-off.

    Willie le RouxAFP

  18. Scotland 0-7 South Africa

    Nice little chip ahead from Greig Laidlaw over the onrushing Boks defence but Willie le Roux gets there ahead of Huw Jones just in front of the posts.

  19. Scotland 0-7 South Africa

    Scotland win a penalty at scrum-time after Springboks loose-head Steven Kitshoff is pinged for driving in sideways. Stuart Hogg kicks to the corner.

  20. Missed tackle from Wilson?

    Scotland 0-7 South Africa

    Peter Wright
    Former Scotland prop on BBC Radio Scotland

    "You’d be disappointed if you were Ryan Wilson there. He flew up on Pollard and gave him the inside. He should’ve tried to force him out."
