Springbok winger Aphiwe Dyanti put in a man of the match performance against Argentina this weekend scoring two tries and assisting a third.
In the 52nd minute, the winger had the opportunity to complete his hattrick but shifted the ball on to his fellow winger Makazole Mapimpi to score his 2nd try of the match.

Dyantyi explained his decision during the post-match interview saying:
"I felt he was in a better position to score, so I gave him the ball to score,"
"For me the most important thing is us getting the result. It doesn't help if I score 50 tries and we lose all of those games. If I can score two tries in 20 games and we win all of those games, that's more important for me than becoming the top try scorer."
When asked whether it was a dream season for him, he stated that a dream season for him is when they beat the All Blacks.
