South Africa 42-28 Scotland: What Townsend said

Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend tells ITV: "We're really frustrated we didn't get more points on the board in the first half and then during that period when the Boks go down to 14 men.

"We were sloppy for 10 minutes.

"I'm massively proud of the effort to come back in. At 70 minutes I was believing we would go on and win, but it wasn't to be today. It's a learning for us, there were a lot of good parts to the play but we've got to be better for 80 minutes.

"There's a lot more in us. I just know, with the amount of opportunities the players created today through work, skill and intelligence, we've got to take more to beat the world champions.

"That's the frustrating element, because we don't get to play South Africa very often, we don't get to play them here, so that'll be the feeling tonight.

"But we've come a long way this season and today was another step forward."
