Pumas' late try seals the victory
Forget about the bomb squad, ladies' rugby teams are bomb squads on their own. The Pumas and Griffons teams did not hold back and played hard rugby in round two of the Women's First Division that took place on July 12 at Patriot High School's fields. The match was very even and devolved into a seesaw battle, with neither team maintaining control of the game for long. Whenever one team managed to break through, the other would step up its defences and respond with fierce counterattacks. Both teams' forwards worked tirelessly, setting the pace for high-speed backline manoeuvres. With the clock winding down, the Pumas dug deep and from a scrum, sliced passed, securing the winning try. The final score was 19–24. Sbusiso Ngomane, the Pumas assistant coach, said last year they beat the Griffons 12 – 54 on their home ground. 'Credit to them, they changed their squad, only five players were in the team that lost last year. They clearly have put in the work, and they will surprise everyone they will be playing against. We definitely didn't expect a fire backline like that. Holding them back for that long is a testament to our ability to defend. They actually looked like they had watched our matches and properly analysed how we play, that put us under a lot of pressure,' Ngomane said.

Springbok Women gear up for glory with Tyla's chart-topping anthem 'Is It'
The Springbok women's rugby team embraces Tyla's chart-topping song 'Is It' in their latest TikTok video. Image: X The South African women's rugby team has given Tyla's hit song a nod, and fans are impressed. The team recently created a TikTok Reel of their arrival at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, which featured the singer's hit song 'Is It' as they entered the stadium for their second test match against Canada. The reel showed the women's team stepping off the bus and walking into the venue, setting the tone for an energetic and motivational performance they were about to put up. The team's choice of song snippet was particularly fitting as they started the track off with the lyrics 'Is it the girls that I came with?' Video Player is loading.

Next Stay Close ✕ The lyrics seemed tailor-made for that particular moment, adding an extra layer of meaning given that the Springbok Women are an all-female team and the girls were walking into the venue. This move shows just how much appeal Tyla has and how diverse her supporters are, not just in South Africa but globally. Her music has transcended genres, resonating with diverse audiences, now including sports fans. TikTok user @exoticexhaust1 commented: 'Yebo springboks supporting South African music 🔥'. 'Is It' has been making impressive waves since its release on July 11, topping charts and breaking records. The song's success is proving to surpass her previous hit single 'Water'. The song's popularity on TikTok was evident even before its official release, as snippets of the track were widely used on the platform. According to 'Chart data', since its drop, 'Is It' has earned 1.27 million streams in its full day of release on Spotify, which makes it her biggest debut yet, and it has officially dethroned what was once her biggest song, 'Water'. The single dropped simultaneously with a music video on YouTube that had fans in a frenzy. The video garnered 762,000 views on the first day of its release. Additionally, 'Is It' is part of the global superstar's upcoming mixtape, titled 'We Wanna Party'. So far, the song joins a single she released earlier in the year, 'Bliss'. Two more songs were revealed at a launch party on July 14, with more to be unveiled.
