Rugby: Blitzboks bounce back to reach Hong Kong quarterfinals

# Rugby: The Blitzboks are through to the quarterfinals of the Hong Kong Sevens thanks to a demanding victory over defending champion Argentina in their final group match. South Africa had mixed results yesterday, scraping through against minnows Uruguay before being hammered 31-12 by Spain. But they bounced back big time today, beating Argentina 38-0. Their cause was helped when Argentinian Martiniano Arrieta received a red card for a tip tackle on Zain Davids. Argentina also qualified for the quarterfinals.
