    What an attacking set from Wales.

    Tommy Reffell has been outstanding for the whole series.

    Dan Biggar can't add the extras with the angle against him.

    But still, Wales defended solidly for 18 minutes and then produced a superb try.

    They are right back into things.

    Much better from Wales!

    George North with ball in hand is a dazzling sight and two superb runs from him put Wales in with a chance of bouncing back.

    They are a few metres short.

    Dan Lydiate is forced off the field as he's bleeding and Alun Wyn Jones is on to replace him.

    Not a bad option to bring on.

    Three times South Africa have opted not to take a chance at three points... and eventually the pressure tells.

    South Africa 3-0 Wales

    Desperate defending from Wales with the hosts having a penalty advantage.

    Wales' defence has stood up brilliantly so far, they've kept South Africa at bay for several minutes now.

    Wales have started so well in the first two Tests so they don't want to fall further behind to this big powerful Springboks team who have a really impactful bench.

    South Africa driving forward now... a few metres from extending their lead... Another decision is being referred to the TMO to see if South Africa crossed the try line.

    The replay is inconclusive.... We go back for a five-metre scrum.

    South Africa have attacked Wales' gain line well so far.

    They don't pass the ball to the secondary players, they give it to the forwards who carry it over the gain line and win territory.

    Damian Willemse with an unbelievable run!

    A really fast start from South Africa.

    They are applying serious pressure and have another penalty.

    Early pressure from the hosts culminates in a try in the corner for the hosts... Or does it?

    No! Makazole Mapimpi stepped just off the pitch.

  19. Series win would be career highlight for Pivacpublished at 16:04 British Summer Time 16 July 2022

    South Africa v Wales (16:05 BST)

    Wales coach Wayne Pivac says winning a series in South Africa would prove the highlight of his career.

    Pivac guided Wales to a Six Nations title in 2021 but believes defeating the world champions in the Cape Town decider would be more special.

    "If we could win this game it would be the highlight, I would imagine, of the players' careers to date," said Pivac.

    "Certainly mine because we'll have created history and won a series in South Africa."

    Former Wales international on BBC Radio Wales Extra

    Taulupe Faletau's being ruled out is a massive loss.

    He's one of the finest number eights in world rugby, he's the man you'd want in the trenches today with history on the line.

    Let's hope Josh Navidi can really step up and that the boys can do the business.
