Japan often made lots of ground with slick handling in the backs using the shield of team mates between the ball and the Boks. Think the Boks should try make contact with these players and try see if they can earn penalty for obstruction that may get Japan to change tactics a bit
Bokke turnover scrum, Matsushima held up…
Bokke MUST also play possession rugby…
Bokke penalty…
Wayne Barnes totally against the Bokke… clear arm around the neck of Mapimpi, in the air described as both going for the ball.
Japan 3 / 8 Springboks
Wow how blatant can they be surely that is a card but not even a penalty. Hopefully he is cited for that
Pieter-Steph knocks a bubbling ball…
Willie le Roux, forward pass to Pieter-Steph du Toit… another opportunity absolutely squandered…
Japan starting to make subs… 2 of them.
Yu Tamura also off, replaced…
Is le Roux struggling from that early knock he took as he is making stupid mistakes

Bokke still persisting to kick, kick, kick…
Another Japan sub, Mafi on…
Japan penalty against Mapimpi… taking the man in the air…
Kitshoff and Koch on for the 2 starting props…
Another Japan player also subbed, Wimpie van der Walt on.
Bokke scrum, on the Japan 10m line…
Bokke scrum penalty, against Nagare…
Pollard for posts again… building the innings…
Missed to the left…
22m Drop out by Japan.
Japan scrum where Mapimpi knocked from a high ball kick once again by the Bokke.
Lemeki also on for Japan… I think ALL the Japanese subs are now on…
Reset scrum… scrum not stable.
Great tackle by le Roux stopped him in his tracks
Bokke penalty, high tackle on Faf de Klerk… kickable…
RG Snyman on for Eben Etzebeth.
