Was this really a try from Sharks player Jaco Williams?

This weekend saw the Sharks beat the Stormers 36–24 at Kings Park Stadium in Durban.

The visiting team and eventual victors started the United Rugby Championship derby fixture strongly, already scoring in the 35th second.

Unfortunately for the Sharks, the victory didn't come without some controversy.

Social media was flooded with comments after Sharks wing Jaco Williams scored a try that many felt should not have been awarded.

With the ball already over the try line, Stormers fullback Warrick Gelant was on his way to pick it up when Williams quickly ran towards the ball, applying pressure while it was over the try line.
