Rugby: Mapimpi’s late try earns the Sharks a win away to Edinburgh in the URC

# Rugby: Makazole Mapimpi scored an 81st-minute try as the Sharks snatched an 18-17 victory against Edinburgh in their 15th round United Rugby Championship clash in the Scottish capital. The homeside, which outscored the visitors by three tries to two, looked on course for a fourth successive home win only to be stunned right at the death by the Durban-based side.
