South Africa's fly-half did not miss in Turin. Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu scored the opening try from 45 meters, then kicked nine conversions and a penalty, 10 for 10 off the tee, for 26 points as the Springboks beat Italy 66-7 in the Nations Championship on Saturday.

The Associated Press report on NBC Sports called the 26 points the third-best test haul of Feinberg-Mngomezulu's career. South Africa led 45-0 at halftime and, per ESPN, 38-0 inside 26 minutes. It was the Springboks' fourth bonus-point win in four matches in the new tournament.

Nine Tries, Four From Lineout Drives

Morne van den Berg scored from a ruck after Italy stopped an early maul, then the maul did the work: hooker Malcolm Marx scored twice from lineout drives and captain Siya Kolisi added another. Damian Willemse finished a Lood de Jager chargedown, Wilco Louw scored in the 46th minute right after the bench came on, and flanker Paul de Villiers and wing Ethan Hooker scored late. Marx's second try came while Italy prop Muhamed Hasa was in the sin-bin. De Jager was a late addition to the starting lineup after lock Salmaan Moerat withdrew before kickoff.

Italy, missing a group of injured front-line forwards, scored its only try through lock Federico Ruzza, set up by a Stephen Varney cut-out pass after the Azzurri improved with Varney and Tommaso Allan on the field in the final half hour.
