It's April 24th, you're listening to Edinburgh News today, AI-powered local news. Edinburgh pulled off a massive 33-28 comeback win over the sharks, rallying from behind three times to crush the South African slim shot at the United Rugby Championship playoffs. Sharks rolled into Scotland needing victories in all three of their final games, hoping for favors elsewhere, but they couldn't stretch their streak. To five straight against an Edinburgh side, already eliminated from contention. The match was a back and forth battle, with tries from UN Ashman, Glenn Young, Mosaic Tui-Balatu, Hector Patterson, and Darcy Graham powering the hosts, while Sharks countered through Edwell van der Merwee, Pepsi by the Lazy, Vincent Koch, and a late Vincent T. Chautouca score for a bonus point. Edinburgh's response game was on point, leveling scores repeatedly before surging ahead in the final minutes, with three tries and nine thrilling ones, marking their first back-to-back wins since May.

Pressure off, the Scots played with fire, and now they're building momentum, heading into the off season, while Sharks regrouped from the heartbreak.
