A LAST-GASP drop goal by Ciarán Frawley saw Ireland claim a sensational 25-24 victory over South Africa at Kings Park Stadium in Durban.

Andy Farrell’s side recovered well from a 27-20 loss in the first Test. 

They established a 16-6 lead at half-time but were hamstrung by a second-half yellow card to Caelan Doris and found themselves trailing in the dying stages before Frawley rescued them with the game’s incredible last act.
