The final score: Boks 29, Kenya 10.

The South African side brushed aside the European nation, scoring three tries to win the match 17-5.

In their last Pool match, they came up against Scotland, with Soyizwapi opening the scoring.

Branco du Preez extended South Africa’s lead with the second try of the match.

Scotland reduced the deficit early in the second half but the Boks had other ideas, with Werner Kok and Soyizwapi scoring their third tries of the Hamilton leg respectively.

The match finished 26-7 to the Boks
