The Springboks have clinched the three-match series against Wales with a 30-14 win at DHL Stadium, Cape Town on Saturday.
Coach Jacques Nienaber reverting back to his tried and tested team paid off as Wales were never able to gain any sort of lead.
There were tries from Makazole Mapimpi and Bongi Mbonambi in the first half while Lukhanyo Am, who was moved to wing due to Cheslin Kolbe going off with an injury, scored in the second half. Then, to seal the deal, captain Siya Kolisi crashed over as well to hand the South Africans their first series win of the season.
Over 50 000 fans were present and cheering the team on as Eben Etzebeth was named ‘Man of the Match’ in his 100th test for his country.
The Boks will have a week's break before they begin preparations for the Rugby Championship starting in August.
