Currie Cup Highlights: Pumas vs Blue Bulls

The Bulls notched up their first victory of the Currie Cup campaign, as a strong finish saw them claim a hard fought 25-17 away win over the Pumas in round 3 in a battle of the only two winless teams in the competition. The Pumas got off to the perfect start, with an early try giving them a 7-0 lead. The Bulls responded with two scores to hit the front, with the Pumas slotting a late first half penalty to trail 12-10 at the break. The Bulls extended their advantage with an early second half penalty, but the Pumas bounced back with their second try to edge ahead 17-15 heading into the final quarter. The Bulls snuck ahead with a penalty before crossing for their third try shortly after to lead by eight points with a little under ten minutes to play. The Pumas had a final chance to snatch a losing bonus point with a penalty with the final play of the match, but the attempt sailed wide.
