An epic win for the warriors in green: here's how Ireland rated

A huge night with so many standout performances in Ireland jerseys - not least from their 38-year old out half

GREEN MACHINE: Bundee Aki breaks clear of Jesse Kriel at the Stade de France in Paris. 

15 HUGO KEENAN: Magnificent early run, picking his line and steaming deep into the Springbok 22, a reminder of the threat Ireland can pose in attack. There was little purchase for South Africa in raining down kicks on him. 7.

14 MACK HANSEN: The right man at the right time, things always seem to happen when Hansen is on the field as shown when scoring the opening try of the evening. Ever reliable under the high ball, always willing to come forward. 8.
