The DHL Stormers rescued what looked set to be a disastrous upset loss on the road against a spirited and improved Dragons side.
Trailing for the majority of the clash, the Stormers turned a narrow deficit into a 23-point win in a near instant.
Playing a key role in this quick accumulation of points was highly touted utility back Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, who scored two rapid-fire tries in the 75th and 79th minutes.
Both scores were spectacular in their own way, but the first one takes the top spot on the list.

Returning a clearance kick from the Dragons, the Stormers launched one of their trademark counterattacks.
Splitting through the line, Feinberg-Mngomezulu put the boot to the ball at full tilt so that fullback Warrick Gelant could gather.
Now racing forward whilst the Dragons’ defenders were backpedalling, the Stormers went into full Fijian 7s mode as they stepped and offloaded superbly before Feinberg-Mngomezulu finished off the move.
The 22-year-old’s try not only gave his team some much-needed breathing space but secured a crucial bonus point.
With the five points in the bag the Stormers provisionally moved up to 5th place on the combined log just one point behind South African rivals the Vodacom Bulls.
