A Kings tackler fails to release, and a Lion penalty ensues. Jantjies thumps the ball into touch as the siren sounds - Kings win this game, but lose on aggregate and must surrender their Super Rugby place to the Golden Lions. Credit to the visitors for a terrific comeback, but it was too little, too late.

Kings making a heroic comeback here in Ellis Park! Lions win a penalty in Kings' territory and boot to touch. They set the rolling maul and tear through the Kings' twenty-two - but the ball is stripped as the line approaches, and flung wide to Gate, who sprints 60 metres before feeding Van Breda on his outside who scores! Van Breda converts his own try from out wide and punches the air in celebration. Kings need 3 points!

Kings kick for touch following the spear tackle, and begin to hammer the Lions' defences. Eventually, it's the sizeable Schalk Ferreira who bulldozes his way over the whitewash! Van Breda takes the conversion quickly from right in front, and the lead narrows to two points! Kings need a further 10 points to reclaim their Super 15 place..
