Polokwane - The Xerox Golden Lions held off a strong second-half performance from the Assupol Limpopo Blue Bulls on their way to a 31-21 (half-time 17-6) win in their Vodacom Cup North Section match at Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane on Friday.
The young Golden Lions’ team, made up of under-21 players, scored four tries to complete a bonus-point win but they were made to work hard for their victory by a Limpopo team that trailed by just three points with 10 minutes to play.
The first quarter of the match was a stop-start affair with neither team able to find any rhythm. The Lions had the better of the early exchanges but their attacking endeavour was thwarted by handling errors and some desperate defence from Limpopo.
