Ireland hold on with 14 men to seal historic first win in South Africa

Ireland’s South Africa-born flanker was sent off on his first overseas tour with his adopted country for cleaning out Pat Lambie, who he captained for the Baby Boks in 2010, with his hip. Iain Henderson and Devin Toner were monumental in the second row, Rory Best an inspirational captain but Paddy Jackson excellent too at fly-half.
