No tries were scored in the first 68 minutes, a passage of play notable for the chances created but not taken by the All Blacks, until Brendon Leonard's try from a Joe Rokocoko break.

Replacement back Nick Evans scored in the 71st minute before Dan Carter added another after the full-time siren.

The young Springboks team was given no chance of winning ahead of the match, with 20 key payers left behind in South Africa and a number of players making their run-on debut. But they only trailed 6-3 at half-time and 12-6 until the All Blacks' late blitz.

Ironically, it was a Springboks knock-on that saw winger Doug Howlett pick up the ball, feed Rokocoko who then found replacement half-back Leonard with a backhand flick pass and he raced home to score his maiden Test try.

Just moments later, utility back Evans burst down the right flank and forced his way over for fly-half Carter to land a splendid sideline conversion.

Carter ran in the third try after the final siren after 12 phases from the All Blacks saw Carter take advantage of a loose ball to stroll away to score untouched.

Carter's conversion saw him score 23 points in the game and hit back at critics that said he was out of form.
