Try Of The Year 2007

The International Rugby Board announced recently that the TRY OF THE YEAR goes to Zee.

IRPA Try of the Year

Takudzwa Ngwenya, USA – Not many people can claim to be quicker than Bryan Habana, but USA’s Takudzwa Ngwenya proved he had the edge by jinking his way round and past the IRB Player of the Year to round off a magnificent USA try against South Africa in the RWC 2007 pool match in Montpellier on September 30.

It began deep in the USA 22, when USA flanker Todd Clever intercepted a South Africa pass. Three passes later the ball reached Ngwenya just inside his own half. As Habana came across to make the tackle Ngwenya checked, sidestepped and powered round the South Africa wing to touch down in the right hand corner.

Someone should be sending Mr. Clever a 'thank you' pint.
