South Africa and Argentina meet in the final match of this year’s Rugby Championship in Durban on Saturday, with both teams still having a mathematical chance of clinching the title.
The teams met last week in Buenos Aires, with the Boks coming out on top, winning 36-20 in a match they dominated, bar for a 20-minute spell after halftime.
Both teams have had their ups and downs this year with the Pumas shocking the All Blacks in New Zealand, while the Boks beat the All Blacks in Mbombela and Australia in Sydney.
Many will feel the Boks also have beaten the All Blacks in Joburg and the Wallabies in Adelaide, while the Pumas won’t be happy with last week’s performance on home soil.
