  1. Penalty - South Africa 15-16 Ireland

    Handre Pollard

    ONE IN IT!

  2. South Africa 12-16 Ireland

    Ireland think they have pinched the ball but Karl Dickson waves play on.

    South African then win the penalty from the next phase as James Ryan strays offside.

    It's a penalty and Pollard points to the posts.

  3. South Africa 12-16 Ireland

    We're really going to see what this Ireland team are made of after that Caelan Doris yellow card.

    South Africa were nowhere near their best in the first half. They look a different team now.

  4. South Africa 12-16 Ireland

    Ireland win the throw and Conor Murray puts in a brilliant clearance kick up to halfway.

  5. 'South Africa have brought a real fight, aggression and upped the ante'

    They are still four points ahead but it's not how they [Ireland] would have wanted to start the second half. Credit to South Africa, they have brought a real fight, aggression and upped the ante which is not surprising as they were poor in the first half.

  6. Replacement

    South Africa 12-16 Ireland

    Siya Kolisi is off and Marco van Staden replaces the Springbok captain.

    The Bomb Squad is being drip fed into action, rather than the usual mass disposal.

  7. South Africa 12-16 Ireland

    It's a sloppy kick from Crowley and he has to race back to gather Williams' response.

    The end result is South Africa having the ball and Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu sends it into the corner.

    Ireland will have the throw, but there's bit pressure on here.

  8. 'The right call'

    South Africa 12-16 Ireland

    Alan Quinlan
    Former Munster and Ireland flanker on Sky Sports

    It's a huge blow for Ireland.

    [Caelan] Doris has been outstanding in this game and outstanding last week, but it's the right call.

  9. South Africa 12-16 Ireland

    Can Ireland respond? They'll have to do it with their captain in the bin.

  10. Penalty - South Africa 12-16 Ireland

    Handre Pollard

    Pollard nails the penalty. That's the Boks now within four points.

    The momentum is all with South Africa now!

    South Africa 6-16 Ireland

    Caelan Doris could be in trouble here for a roll on Malcolm Marx....and he is! The Irish captain is sent to the bin!

    That's a huge moment! It was flagged by the TMO and it's a huge blow to Ireland!

  13. South Africa 9-16 Ireland

    Penalty South Africa!

    There's an infringement at the ruck, which is followed by a quick scuffle.

    I'm not sure who said it, but the referee's mic picked up an Irish player saying 'they're just having a hug!'.

    That's not a cuddle many would fancy!

  14. South Africa 9-16 Ireland

    Calvin Nash does really well to gather Pollard's kick and his reward is to get smashed by three South African players. Ouch!

  15. South Africa 9-16 Ireland

    Alan Quinlan
    Former Munster and Ireland flanker on Sky Sports

    It's a lovely strike and exactly what Rassie Erasmus would have wanted, get the first score in the second half.

  16. South Africa 6-16 Ireland

    Jamie Osborne does really well to pluck the ball out of the air, but it all gets a bit scrappy and Bealham knocks the ball on.

  17. Penalty - South Africa 9-16 Ireland

    Handre Pollard

    Pollard is three from three! Game on!

  18. South Africa 6-16 Ireland

    Tadhg Furlong is replaced by Finlay Bealham after picking up a head injury.

    Faf de Klerk is also off for a HIA.

  19. South Africa 6-16 Ireland

    The Boks win the ball back and manage to win a penalty in a very kickable position.

    This is a chaotic start to the second half!

    Unbelievable scramble in defence again from Ireland. I am not sure where they are finding the energy!
