South Africa scored seven tries as they eased to a 45-12 victory over Wales in their Autumn international clash in Cardiff on Saturday, inflicting a 12th successive defeat on their hosts to put more pressure on coach Warren Gatland.

The Springboks ran out easy 45-12 winners. South Africa didn’t pick up any rankings points for their victory due to the lowly standing (11th) of the Welsh. In results which did affect the standings, France picked up 0.43 points after beating Argentina 37-23, while the Pumas lost the same number.

Warren Gatland has expressed his desire to stay on as Wales rugby coach after making what could prove to be his final team announcement in the role amid a record run of losses by the national side.
