The Bulls put on another thrilling display as they defeated Benetton 56 - 35 in the United Rugby Championship on Saturday.

The Bulls managed to secure their 12th win in this season's United Rugby Championship thanks to the victory over Benetton.

The win saw the Bulls move to second place on the URC points table with 61 points. Things could change on the log with Glasgow Warriors and Leinster still to play later. Nonetheless, the Bulls got the job done in a must-win game and secured their place in the URC playoffs. The home side was excellent in how they were able to recycle the ball among the forwards and backs. Most of their entries into the Benetton half were well coordinated and resulted in them coming back with points. This could be seen when they scored a converted try through David Kriel in the 17th minute and then Kurt-Lee Arendse added another five points two minutes later.

There was a form of anxiety or déjà vu among the Bulls faithful, were they about to see their team have another second-half collapse?
