SACHA’S FEINEST MATCH YET

If anyone was wondering, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu has arrived.

The Springbok fly-half caught the attention of the world when he scored a record-breaking 37 points during South Africa’s match against Argentina yesterday. South Africa beat Argentina 67-30.

The match, which was the Springboks’ pen-ultimate game in the Castle Lager Rugby Championship, was played at Hollywoodbets Kings Park.

During the first 35 minutes, it seemed as if the Boks couldn’t find their rhythm. Especially with Cheslin Kolbe losing his concentration for a second and handing the Pumas a try.

At halftime, Feinberg-Mngomezulu was responsible for 20 of the 25 points for the Springboks. That included two tries, which pushed the fly-half into the record books.

Feinberg-Mngomezulu now holds the individual record for points from a single player in a match for the Springboks. A title previously held by Percy Montgomery.

The man of the match, Feinberg-Mngomezulu, helped out his teammate when he drop-kicked the perfect ball to land in Cheslin Kolbe’s hands, setting up the perfect try.

With the final score making it almost impossible for Argentina to win the title, Australia and New Zealand are theoretically still in it, with four points and one point respectively behind the Springboks.
