Draw for the Sprinkbok Sevens
Springbok Sevens fly half Cecil Afrika nailed a last second conversion to force a remarkable draw with Samoa, and send his side through to the quarterfinals at the top of Pool B.
Newsflash News Agency reports that media reported the dramatic end of the game came as Samoa looked to have done enough to win, but veteran Uale Mai had his kick charged down and with Afrika gathering the ball, a wave of attack was put into motion after the final whistle which ended with Frankie Horne powering over to score.
This made the score 12-10 for Samoa, but Afrika’s low and twirling kick managed to creep over the bar to force the draw.
