Expect a game of kicking rugby in the second half. Line outs are going to be vitally important and we'll have to wait and see if both teams can retain possession from the throw, if not they could be in for a tough time.
Not too much to write home about in that half of rugby. A lot of handling errors and very little running rugby, we'll chalk it down to the weather. Argentina did a great job in pinning the Springboks back in their half with the stats showing 57% territory in the favour The Pumas.
South Africa reclaimed 3 out of 20 kicks in comparison to Argentina's 0 out of 16.
A little bit of "how's your father?" between the two teams on the sound of the hooter. Nothing serious though.
South Africa had a massive overlap, but De Villiers pass to Habana was behind him and the ball goes out for a line out.
Sanchez managed to break the line around his own 22m, escaped a few tackles to gain them some serious ground.
go pumas !
South African line out in their attacking 22m, they set up a maul and get it rolling. The overlap is spotted and the ball is played to the back line, but Pollard knocks it on. Yet another handling error in the rain.
Can't they invent a ball that's not so dam slippery?
Very tough conditions in Pretoria, and it has shown through a lot of the handling.
Momentum appears to be with Argentina at the moment, constantly pinning South Africa back into their 22m. That being said, the Springbok line outs have been looking pretty poor so far.
