Sharks interim head coach JP Pietersen hailed 20-year-old wing Jaco Williams after he turned in a stellar performance during just his second start for the Durban union.
The Junior Springbok world champion followed up his try against the Stormers in Cape Town last week with another two during their return leg in Durban on Saturday. The Sharks won both matches the only two defeats the Stormers have suffered in the United Rugby Championship so far this season.
Opportunistic tryWilliams found a gap to score in the second half. Then, with the game still tight after 71 minutes, he chased a kick into the Stormers in-goal area. Fullback Warrick Gelant had the ball covered but was lax in grounding it, lightly touching it with both hands as Williams closed in.
