The Junior Springboks suffered a heart-breaking 24-19 defeat against Australia in their second outing at a wet Sunshine Coast Stadium on Tuesday.

However, they showed great fighting spirit until the final whistle despite a red card in the first half.

The Baby Boks played with 14 men for 20 minutes with prop Mbasa Maqubela red-carded midway through the first half for a dangerous clear-out at a ruck.

He was joined in the sin bin by lock Bathobele Hlekani with just under 10 minutes remaining – the South African yellow-carded for a cynical foul, collapsing the maul near his tryline.

In the other match, the Baby Blacks remain the only unbeaten team – having beaten Argentina 43-20 on Tuesday.

The result saw them displace Los Pumitas at the top of the tournament standings.
