    That is class from Crowley. Initially, chasing a kick back under pressure and then not giving up on that one with Moodie.

    Incredible determination from the Munster man.

    We're well inside the final 10 minutes now. This has flown by.

    It's even better from Crowley!

    South Africa look like they are in for a certain try and Canan Moodie looks like he is going to win the foot race to score, but Crowley dives and gets a bit hand on the ball to get a crucial touch as the wing looked to touch down.

    That's absolutely outrageous from Crowley.

    James Lowe loses the ball and Cheslin Kolbe races forward and kicks through.

    Crowley somehow does enough to get the ball and he runs to the edge of the 22.

    It's like one of those rackets with the ball on a string as every time Ireland clear South Africa comes again.

    Sam Prendergast now kicks clear.

    The fans at the end of the ground where South Africa are attacking are getting their money's worth as the Boks come again.

    Jesse Kriel hacks the ball forward but Crowley, who is now definitely at full-back, hammers the ball away.

    Pieter-Steph du Toit looks for the offload but it's straight into the arms of James Lowe.

    Can Ireland finally get out of their own half?

    Malcolm Marx is the next casualty as he's replaced by Johan Grobbelaar.

    The world champions are pushing but Kwagga Smith looses it and Gibson-Park hammers it clear.

    I've no idea how Ireland escaped that without conceding.

    Mack Hansen now hobbles off and Tom Farrell comes on for his second cap.

    This has been brutal.

    Bok pack is immense

    Tug, Aberdeen

    Penalty after penalty! Remember England struggling with poor discipline in the past, didn’t expect it from this Irish side, taking nothing away from the Boks, clinical

    We finally get going and Manie Lobbok is nailed by Mack Hansen to stop any momentum.

    But the Springboks rally again and they have another penalty advantage as Bundee Aki strayed offside.

    The South Africans will be licking their lips at the thought of the next scrum. Ireland will be panicking and dreading every scrum.

    If you're a fan of scrums then this second half is for you.

    It's fallen again, but this time Matthew Carley calls for a reset.

    I hope Andrew Porter enjoyed his five minutes of rest. He's back on and Josh van der Flier jogs off again for the next scrum.

    Paddy McCarthy is the fifth Irish player to be sent to the bin this evening.

    Ireland are crumbling at the scrum.
