Penalty Leinster as Hooker is off his feet. Leinster going for poles. This for a 1 point lead.

AE runs over Henshaw, Hooker penalized at the breakdown. Irish commentators thinking Hooker was hard done by, see that kind of thing at every breakdown is their opinion.

Sharks have to defend for the lives here...and luckily Leinster throw it over the lineout, the Sharks break out but are penalised again and Pretender will go for 3 to edge Leinster into the road by 1...

14-15 Leinster

Juju tackling while on the ground, he got away with it. And good thing too because the Sharks get a try from it, started by a carcking break by Eben. .

Great break by Edwill and then Eben throws a beautful dummy to make lots of ground and the pass goes to AE who scores.

Brilliant Sharks!

I think Eben takes most of the credit for that try. The dummy was brilliant and his offload was perfect.

Ja ja Beensie, AE barely made it in time for the pass. Luckily the tackler slowed Eben down enough ne?

Contrast Eben's performance so far with Kolisi's yesterday. Eben involved in everything, Kolisi hiding on the wing doing just about nothing the entire time he was on the field.

It's now done.

Suck it, Leinster

Moyo's conversion attempt hits the upright.

26-15 Sharks with 1 minute to go.

Leinster get a late penalty. Leinster do get a try at the death as Prendergast kicks for Osborne to get in.

That's the game. 26-20. Well done Sharks!!!

Played 2 Won 2.

Good win for the Sharks

They're finally looking like a team one can watch again. Even if only barely so

Sharks starting to look like a team. Eben coming on and breaking the game open, exactly what you want from your Boks. Probably what the Stormers wanted from theirs, too.

Ref was pretty good, decisive, did so much talking and no more.
