Zebre vs Bulls head to head

The Bulls showcased their dominance with a convincing 47-13 victory over Zebre Parma at Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi. Zebre initially took the lead with a penalty from Allan, but the Bulls quickly responded with a penalty try and tries from Ludwig and de Wet. Two yellow cards for Zebre, including one for Canali in the 25th minute, hindered their efforts significantly. The Bulls continued to capitalize on Zebre's mistakes, extending their lead through tries from Vermaak and Vorster early in the second half. Fusco managed a consolation try for Zebre, but the Bulls' relentless attack saw Kunene and Burger score late tries, sealing their comprehensive win. Curwin Bosch's kicking was instrumental, contributing to a flawless conversion record until his substitution. Overall, the Bulls' superior performance highlighted their strength in the competition.
