South Africa managed to stay ahead at halftime with a 7-5 lead, but that didn’t last long in the second spell as Argentina continued to ramp up its attack.

The two sides were tied at 17-all with just a few seconds left at the sound of the full-time siren.

But it was Selvyn Davids who managed to slip his way through the corner with a try to seal the deal.

Davids also becomes the player of the match.
