The Springboks bounced back from their Johannesburg disappointment with a 30-22 victory over the Wallabies in a chilly, windswept Cape Town on Saturday night, in front of a sold-out Cape Town Stadium.

The result saw South Africa retain the Mandela Challenge Plate, but it was more of a grind than a spectacle, with errors keeping the contest alive until the closing stages.
