Bulls Defeat Edinburgh 42-33 to Reach URC Semi-Final in South Africa

News summary

The Bulls secured a 42-33 victory over Edinburgh in the United Rugby Championship quarter-final at Loftus Versfeld, overcoming an early deficit to dominate the second half with six tries to Edinburgh's five. Edinburgh started strong, capitalizing on a yellow card to Bulls' Sebastian de Klerk and building a 21-18 lead at halftime, but the Bulls' second-half surge, featuring tries from Canan Moodie, Keagan Johannes, and Ruan Nortje, secured the win. The Bulls will face either the Sharks or Munster in the semi-finals, maintaining a perfect record against Edinburgh at Loftus. Edinburgh was without key player Duhan van der Merwe due to injury, along with Grant Gilchrist and Glen Young, who are expected to return if Edinburgh progresses. Head coach Sean Everitt emphasized the need for intensity and discipline to compete with the physical Bulls side. Bulls director of rugby Jake White was pleased with the win against his former understudy Everitt after a recent Challenge Cup loss to Edinburgh.
