Tough night

It looked promising when Kolisi was dancing through the Argentinian defence early on.

But Los Pumas hit back with an uncharacteristically disciplined performance to seal a handsome victory in Mendoza.

Delguy scored twice, before Sanchez and Moyano added the others in an impressive display for the South Americans.

Mapoe's second half double wasn't nearly enough for the Springboks.

That's all from us, we'll see you for more Rugby Championship action in a fortnight!

It's all over, Springboks lose!

Argentina knock on five metres from the line but they have a vital Rugby Championship win!

It just ain't happening

77' More pressure from the Springboks but it comes to nothing and they're heading for defeat here.

Creevy strides off for a sit down amid the toil, with his job very well done indeed.

What an escape

72' Heavy pressure from the Boks right on Argentina's line comes to nothing.

In fact, it comes to rather less than nothing as Los Pumas turn over possession and break free, reaching the Springbok 22 before play is halted for an injury.

Try Springboks!

66' Mapoe sneaks into the corner for a second time and it's about time, too.

Le Roux once again sparked the opportunity and the Boks have given themselves a sniff after a lengthy spell of dominance. 

All pressure, no points

65' Which is a problem, as far as South Africa are concerned.

Another penalty as the Boks kick for the corner but that clock doesn't stop ticking...

No try Springboks!

59' Aphiwe Dyantyi gathers really well before diving into the corner but the pass to him was forwards.

Opportunity missed after a spell of pressure for the tourists, who need points sharpish here.

Boks on the front foot

55' They earn a penalty with a bit of enterprising play through the middle.

Good run from Esterhuizen, De Klerk looking lively and the Boks have a scrum feed 22 metres out.

Try Springboks!

50' There is life!

Lionel Mapoe scores his first try in national colours down the right wing after smart work from Willie le Roux to tee him up.

Perfect kick from Pollard to add the extras and the Springboks are keeping themselves in the contest. Just.

Try Argentina!

50' Another score out wide for Los Pumas and it's wing Ramiro Moyano who goes in out left.

The Boks have been too narrow, really, and they've been punished in a flash there.

A mountain to climb.
