So this pollard kid is pretty good...

The hooter sounds and the half is called to a close. The Springboks lead the All Blacks by 21 points to 13 in a fairly even first half.

Pollard collects the ball very flat off the scrum and shows some decent footwork to get through Barrett before being tackled by McCaw. He stretches over the line to score his second try of the match just before halftime. Great play by the youngster.

Scrum collapses once again. The ref will eventually be forced into making a decision.

2min remaining in the half. The ball goes loose inside the Boks 22m and Hougaard manages to clear the ball up field. A great foot race between Fekitoa and Hendricks results in the ball being dotted down by Fekitoa on his own tryline. The TMO adjudges that it was carried over the tryline and thus awards a 5m scrum to the Boks.

Go all blacks. #Brazillovesrugbytoo

Springboks have a lineout on halfway. They perform a brilliant backline move which puts Hendricks into a gap. He then chips the ball forward but le Roux was in front of him, thus being offside. Penalty awarded to New Zealand, who set up a lineout near the Boks 22m.

tight score for almost halfway...

Go go go all blaks.

Savea gets his team out of jail with a brilliant chip and gather off the back of a demolished scrum. He gets brought down in the Springboks 22m and after recycling the ball, Fekitoa finds a gap in the midfield to slip through the defense and go over for a try under the poles.
