The Springboks are through to the Rugby World Cup semi-finals following a 23-19 victory over Wales at Twickenham.
Skipper Fourie du Preez scored a late try to send his side through to the semi-finals.
This means that Wales have exited the tournament at the quarter-final stage.

Heyneke Meyer's men will play the winner of tonight's match between New Zealand and France in Cardiff.
