The ball bounces loose but Kolbe scoops it up. The Boks have life still. Now they don’t! Turnover, Preston wins it back for New Zealand and they just need to kick it out!

The siren goes but South Africa turn the ball over! They’ll have one more chance. They’re just outside the 22

BUT IT’S A TURNOVER! Ardie Savea! Ardie Savea! On his 100th cap, he may just have won it for New Zealand.

Gets over the ball at the breakdown and WILL NOT be moved. Brilliant back row play, he wins the penalty and the All Blacks kick clear. Wow!

Lienout secured but the maul collapses imemdiately. The Boks keep the ball tight and run a couple of phases around the breakdown. 10 metres out now.

The All Blacks play the ball on the floor – on replay, that looks unlucky after a clean strip. South Africa penalty and kick to the corner. Lineout for the Boks in the 22…

The intensity is on another level here. The Boks defence delivers big hit after big hit to repel the All Blacks and now they’re on the attack

TRY! New Zealand 24-17 South Africa (Cobus Reinach, 75 mins)

DRAMA! We’re in for a grandstand finish here. South Africa pound away at the All Blacks defence and Cobus Reinach has a dart from five metres out. He dummies, snipes, stays low, slips between two tackles and dives over the line. The Boks have life!

Conversion added and it’s a one-score game entering the final five minutes.

Hooker tries a chip over the top with Kriel in pursuit and it bounces awkwardly but Preston deals with it well and dots down behind his own line

Springboks win a penalty and kick to the corner. Surely have to score a try here to have any chance in this contest?
