Rugby: Cheetahs vs Falcons







Cheetahs rugby fans in die Sedibeng (Gauteng, South Africa) and Sasolburg (Northern Free State) were treated with top Vodacom rugby action when the Cheetahs and the Falcons took each other on in an official league game in Sasolburg on Saturday (March 1).
The day started early with school and club teams playing before the main game. But a heavy thunderstorm shortly before the start of the main game, almost ruined everything. It sent spectators running for cover and approximately 30mm of rain was measured in the thunderstorm that lasted for almost half and hour..
But the skies dried up and the game started right on schedule. Almost 1 500 spectators hurried back to the pavilions. It turned out to be a day to remember as the Falcons put up quite a display of skill and character, taking on the much loved Cheetahs.
The Cheetahs recorded their second consecutive Vodacom 14 victory (36-33).
