Sharks clear the ball and the Cheetahs have a lineout on the 22m. They form a maul and go 25m to score, brilliant try.

Cheetahs steal the ball at the lineout and clear up field, after a bit of a kicking battle Johan Goosen puts in a brilliant kick for the corner to set up a Sharks 5m lineout.

The Cheeatahs decide to counter attack instead of dotting the ball down, eventually they make a break down the side of the field but give a penalty away after the Cheetahs go offside at the ruck. Sharks penalty near halfway.

Sharks win a penalty straight from the kickoff after the Cheetahs go offside. Swiel lines up a 50m kick to level it up.

Goosen gets the match underway, Marais clears the ball up field. The Cheetahs return the kick and Marais makes a great catch before the Sharks clear once again. Sharks are now penalised for tackling a man without the ball. Should be an easy 3 points for Goosen.

Both teams are on the park, kickoff is seconds away.

Kickoff is 10min away.
