Try Cheetahs. Controversial try from Pretorius as he puts his side in the lead. The ball was bouncing around from both sides, it went to the TMO and eventually the try was given. Smit converts so the score is now 20-16 after 45 minutes.

Half time and surprisingly Lions lead. A half dominated by the Cheetahs in possession and have scored two tries compared to Lions only try but some how are behind. Lions out half Boshoff has kicked brilliantly keeping a 100% record throughout. This game could go either way and should be in for a great second half.
