Sergeal Petersen scored a second-half brace to push the Vodacom Bulls through a star-studded Leinster and into the URC final in Pretoria on Saturday.
The victory was built on a tactical masterclass from Jake White’s side, who came into the match without the services of Springbok starts Kurt-Lee Arendse and Canan Moodie, against a Lenster team boasting 15 internationals in their starting lineup. Cameron Hanekom did his hopes of a Springbok call-up for the upcoming July internationals no end of good with a monstrous performance on attack and defence that earned him the man of the match award.
However, the Bulls kept applying the pressure and took the lead when Goosen ran an excellent line to burst through the Leinster defence and score a self-converted try. Goosen added a penalty in the final play to give the Bulls a slim three-point lead at the break.
