Wales head coach Steve Tandy says he was bitterly disappointed to finish the season with a 43-0 hammering by South Africa.
Tandy’s side failed to score a single point once more against the Springboks, who ran out convincing Nations Championship winners in Durban.
The world champions won their previous meeting 73-0 in November when Wales conceded 11 tries and suffered their heaviest home defeat.
South Africa were nowhere near as ruthless on home soil, but still scored seven tries with Jasper Wiese, Cobus Reinach, Jesse Kriel, Jaco Williams, Herschel Jantjies, Kurt-Lee Arendse and Paul de Villiers crossing.
“I am bitterly disappointed with the scoreline,” said Tandy.
“I commend the team around the effort, they stayed in the fight for large parts of the game.
“There’s massive pride in our players, how hard they work and the effort they put in, up against the world champions.”
