Sharks sneak past Lions
- 1227
The Sharks had to come from behind to claim a hard-fought 26-23 victory over the Golden Lions at Kings Park on Friday.
The visitors took a 13-11 lead into the half-time break and outscored the Sharks by two tries to one, but the steady boot of Fred Zeilinga saw the hosts edge a tense encounter.
The win means that the Sharks move to within two log points of the Lions who still occupy second position on the standings ahead of the final round robin matches next week.
