South Africa 22-38 Australia: Rugby Championship Test – as it happened

In a dramatic Rugby Championship Test, Australia mounted a stunning comeback to defeat South Africa 38-22 in Johannesburg. The Springboks started strongly, scoring the first 22 points of the match, including a try from Canan Moodie. However, a double from Harry Wilson inspired a remarkable turnaround by the Wallabies, who scored 38 unanswered points to secure their first win in Johannesburg since 1963. The comeback was fueled by strong carries from players like Pieter-Steph du Toit and Siya Kolisi, as well as a well-executed try involving several phases. Despite the early lead, South Africa were unable to maintain their momentum, allowing Australia to seize control and ultimately emerge victorious in a thrilling encounter.
