(Reuters) -First half tries by scrumhalf Cobus Reinach and wing Aphelele Fassi led a much-changed South Africa to a scrappy 32-12 bonus-point victory over Argentina on their return to the Rugby Championship in Nelson Mandela Bay on Saturday.

The Springboks rested the majority of the side that beat the British & Irish Lions in their recent series, but continued with their territorial kicking style of play that put the South Americans under immense pressure with the high ball.
