Facing the double South African world champions, after a series of eleven defeats in a row, we feared the worst for Wales, who currently occupies 11th place in the world, the lowest in its history. And the worst did not take long to arrive, embodied by the two Springbok second lines, the giants Franco Mostert and Eben Etzebeth, 209 cumulative selections, authors of two tries as if on parade, from the 5th and 8th minute (12 -0). Opposite, fly-half Sam Costelow came out for an HIA test and his teammate Jac Morgan made 10 tackles in less than ten minutes (more than thirty at the finish).
