Dan Biggar hailed Wales' "huge achievement" after his team of history-makers stunned world champions South Africa 13-12 in Bloemfontein.

It was Wales' first win against the Springboks on South African soil, ending 58 years of hurt and arriving at the 12th attempt.

After suffering an agonising three-point defeat in last weekend's series opener, Wayne Pivac's team made no mistake at the second time of asking and set up a Cape Town decider next Saturday.

Josh Adams' 78th-minute try was converted from the touchline by his fellow replacement Gareth Anscombe - who went on for Biggar early in the second half - as Wales levelled the series.

"We have earnt the right to enjoy this victory because it is a huge achievement," Wales captain Biggar said.

"There have been some very, very good Wales teams to have come here and been sent packing. We are a really tight-knit group, and everyone deserves a pat on the back.

"I mentioned before the game in my speech (to the players) that it was an easy job to be captain of this team because we have got a great group of guys who will roll their sleeves up and work their socks off."

Biggar (shoulder) and wing Alex Cuthbert (arm) both departed the action early as Wales dug deep to claim an unforgettable win.

"I am a bit sore, so we will see how it pulls up tomorrow, but the last two minutes made it a little bit better," Biggar said.

"I will be desperate to be involved next Saturday. Hopefully, it is just a bang and nothing more."
