Groningen responded with a penalty, which would eventually bring the decision. Yedney America put Oemoemenoe 22-24 just in time, but the leader didn’t give up the win.
LSRG-Toval 27-5: Goesen’s team gave the Leiden students a good game in the initial phase, but after Gaius Shannon’s withdrawal, LSRG struck with two tries: 10-0. Even after the break, Tovaal failed to respond to strong LSRG runners. Roy Kloet had a try after some good play from the forwards, but in the end the home side deserved to win.
