Описание: 1st XV Michaelhouse vs Hilton College Rugby🔥 | 209th Derby Clash | Full Match Highlights

The 209th edition of the Michaelhouse vs Hilton College derby delivered another absolute classic in one of South Africa’s fiercest schoolboy rugby rivalries.

Michaelhouse came out firing in the first 20 minutes, dominating physically and putting Hilton on the back foot with a convincing early lead. But Hilton responded in style with two quickfire tries, swinging momentum and heading into halftime 19-13 up.

The second half was a nail-biter. House looked shaky at first but found their rhythm, pushing Hilton all the way. The score tightened to 22-20, and a crucial Hilton penalty stretched the lead to 25-20 with minutes to play.

Michaelhouse surged back in the dying stages and got within metres of the try line — but heartbreak followed as the ball was knocked loose. Final whistle. Hilton take it by 5 points in a thriller, extending their recent run with a second consecutive win in the derby series.

Michaelhouse 101 wins | Hilton 98 wins | One of SA’s greatest rugby rivalries continues…
