A DRAMATIC penalty try two minutes from time allowed South Africa to complete an incredible comeback and pip Wales 31-30 in the second rugby Test on Saturday.

The decisive moment in an action-packed encounter, that included seven tries and three yellow cards, came when Wales full-back Liam Williams' last-gasp tackle in the corner on South Africa wing Cornal Hendricks was deemed to be illegal, leading referee Steve Walsh to award a penalty try.

Fly half Morne Steyn duly converted to put South Africa ahead for the first time in the match and, with his opposite number Dan Biggar failing with two late dropped goal attempts, the Springboks avoided what would have been a first ever home defeat by Wales.

South Africa won the two-match series 2-0 after a 38-16 win in the opener.
