The Lions under pressure now having to deal with a defensive scrum five meters out from their own try line

The Bulls ten meters out and knock the ball on five meters out after some scrabbling defense , to good effect , from the Lions

Pierre Spies doing excellent work at the breakdown winning the ball back but, the Bulls possession is brief as the Lions regain the possession and go on the attack. Again the possession from the Lions is brief and the Bulls back in possession now and on the attack

The Lions turn it over and go on the attack

Lions defense being tested and as a result the Lions turn over the ball and the Lions fullback redeems himself with a great touch finder taking play back into the Bulls half just outside the Bulls 22

Jesse Kriel sends his clearance upfield deliberately not looking for touch, and the Lions fullback in turn over cooks his clearance and the Bulls now with the line out inside the Lions half. Time off for now as Elton Jantjies receives some treatment

Second half underway now, and the Bulls receive the restart from Jantjies and clear their lines with a touch finder taking play back towards the half way line

radar is working now

The kick is just wide and the ref blows his whistle sending the players down the tunnel for the half time break

The hooter sounds but the Lions are in possession and looking to end the half with a score but , the Bulls are penalized for going off their ffet at the ruck and Elton Jantjies gets the instruction to go for goal
