How to watch South Africa vs Argentina: live stream Rugby Championship 2025 online from anywhere
The Springboks have restored their fear factor, but the Pumas have star man Tomas Albornoz back

If there's one thing we've learned from this remarkable 2025 Rugby Championship, it's to rule nothing out. Everybody has beaten everybody this far, so although the Springboks enter this pivotal penultimate-round clash at Durban's Kings Park Stadium off the back of one of their greatest ever performances, they're up against the greatest ever Pumas team. One set to be lifted by the return of star player Tomas Albornoz.

Albornoz was man of the match in Argentina's 29–28 victory over South Africa at last year's Championship, and dazzled in their triumph against the Lions. It illustrates the importance of penalties to Felipe Contepomi's men that, despite dislocating a finger minutes into the Round 2 encounter against New Zealand, the fly-half is still the tournament's 6th top-scorer. His deputy, Santiago Carreras, has scored twice as many points as anybody else, but can't unpick defences quite like Albornoz.
South Africa's obituaries were being written after two defeats from their opening three games, but Rassie Erasmus' men responded with a performance for the ages. The Boks meted out the All Blacks' heaviest-ever Test defeat, in New Zealand no less, with six tries from Cheslin Kolbe, Damian Willemse, Kwagga Smith, RG Snyman and Andre Esterhuizen securing a narrative-shattering 43-10 victory that's gone straight into rugby folklore.
Argentina would top the standings were it not for their logic-defying defeat to the Wallabies in Round 3, but instead they're at the bottom, albeit only two points behind leaders Australia. South Africa are one better-off, level on points with New Zealand.
Here's how to watch South Africa vs Argentina live streams from anywhere in the world.
