Bulls and Stormers book quarter-final spots

SA Rugby


The Bulls and Stormers have booked their sports in the Vodacom United Rugby Championship quarter-finals following wins over the weekend in the final pool matches.

The Vodacom Bulls, who also secured the SA Shield for the first time, registered a bonus-point 26-14 victory against the Hollywoodbets Sharks in Durban to finish second on the log to secure a home quarter-final at Loftus Versfeld against Benetton.

A win in this match will see them host a semi-final.

Meanwhile, the DHL Stormers overcame a red card to earn a close 29-24 victory against the Emirates Lions to end in fifth position and will face Glasgow Warriors in Scotland in their playoff match next weekend.

It was bad luck for the Lions who lost out on a top-eight spot after Ospreys beat Cardiff with a bonus point.

The two other quarter-finals are between Munster and Ospreys in Limerick on Friday evening,  while Leinster will host Ulster in Dublin on Saturday.
