Jantjies' try secures 16-16 draw with Kiwis

WELLINGTON • Replacement scrum-half Herschel Jantjies scored a try in the final minute to help South Africa snatch a 16-16 draw with New Zealand in a tense Rugby Championship clash yesterday.

He pounced on an error by scrum-half Aaron Smith to silence most of the sold-out crowd, who had been expecting a win for the world champions in Wellington.

Centre Jack Goodhue scored the only try for the All Blacks, while full-back Richie Mo'unga got the rest of their points. Springboks fly-half Handre Pollard kicked three penalties before slotting home the conversion.
