Boks beat Scotland 32-15 in Murrayfield Test — LIVE

South Africa scored four tries to none to beat Scotland 32-15 in a Test match at Murrayfield in Edinburgh on Sunday.

Makazole Mapimpi scored two tries, Thomas du Toit one and Jasper Wiese one in a good, hard-fought victory against a game Scotland.

The hosts asked plenty of questions over the 80 minutes but had to rely on Finn Russell’s boot to stay in the game as the Boks, for the second time running, denied Scotland from scoring a try.

The Boks’ “Bomb Squad” — their famed replacements bench — eventually got on top in the latter stages of the match as the world champions started their three match tour with a win. They play England next weekend and then Wales.

Below is how The Citizen covered the game.
