  Cheetahs 22 Sharks 29

  Full time
• 

  The Sharks are in possession inside their half. They set up several phases and when the siren sounds Cobus Reinach boots the ball into touch. The visitors are victorious but the result could so easily have gone to the visitors who fought back well and almost clinched a surprise win. Both sides deserve credit though for making this the entertaining spectacle that it was but in the end the Sharks' first half effort secured them this win.
