The Jaguares have completed a rare SA tour double and starting to look like last season's problem side.
Complete performances are rare from the South Americans but this was easily their best showing in South Africa and in Super Rugby.
The story of the first was about the Sharks doing all the running with the Jaguares doing all the scoring. The Sharks did take the lead through a Robert du Preez 22nd minute penalty but as seems to be the case with most Sharks home games, the game descended into an inexplicable aimlessness the hosts are only capable of.
Matera was the recipient of the loose ball which he chipped and gathered for what was a brilliant try from a multi-skilled footballer.
