Ireland’s two-match tour concludes next Saturday in Durban after an opening 27-20 defeat.
Ireland boss Andy Farrell has warned his players to avoid being “desperate” in their efforts to salvage a series draw in South Africa following defeat in the opening Test.
Farrell, who felt his side invited pressure and were punished for indiscipline, is targeting significant improvement during next weekend’s tour finale in Durban.Asked what he will change, the head coach replied: “Quite a bit actually. I suppose the main thing is attacking the game the way we want to do it and not being desperate just because we’ve lost this week.
James Lowe was frustrated to have a second-half score disallowed due to Ronan Kelleher’s adjudged infringement, before gifting a try to Cheslin Kolbe in his attempts to prevent the ball going into touch. “There are some great learnings from the first half that we put right in the second half,” added Farrell, who was relatively tight-lipped regarding the debatable TMO calls involving Lowe.
