A NIGHT TO REMEMBER IN DURBAN!

@Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu just etched his name into Springbok history with a performance that dreams are made of! In a thrilling test match against Argentina at Kings Park, the young sensation delivered a hat trick of tries — a rare feat achieved by only a handful of Boks over the decades.

But he didn’t stop there…

With ice in his veins and fire in his boots, Sacha racked up a staggering 37 points on his own, breaking Percy Montgomery’s legendary record of 35 points in a single test match. The scoreboard said it all: Springboks 67 – Argentina 30. A dominant victory, powered by a rising star.

Legends are born in moments like these.
