The winning margin could have been a lot wider as flyhalf Joaquin Diaz Bonilla missed four of eight shots at goal
Topping the SA table confirmed the progress of the Jaguares, who won just four of 15 matches three years ago in their debut season. Beating the Sharks gave the South Americans a 10 win-five loss record this season and they are set to triumph at home to bottom team the Sunwolves this Friday in the final league round.
Jaguares have 46 points and the Brumbies from Australia 43 and both are assured of home quarterfinals, along with the fourth-placed Hurricanes. Sharks skipper and scrum-half Louis Schreuder said:"We had to start well to have any chance of winning here, but instead we found ourselves on the back foot for most of the first half. We conceded too many penalties during the opening 40 minutes, which turned promising attacking situations into a need to defend near our tryline.
