In a nail-biting match that had fans on the edge of their seats, it was ultimately Burton's golden boot that sealed the deal for the Bulldogs.

After a couple of near misses earlier in the game, Burton showed nerves of steel to kick the winning field goal from 35 metres out.

This victory marked the Bulldogs' sixth consecutive win at Accor Stadium, a venue that is quickly becoming a fortress for the team.

Climbing to fifth on the ladder, the Bulldogs are proving themselves to be a force to be reckoned with in the competition.

The match got off to a dramatic start with a mistake from Sharks' Cam McInnes setting the tone for the Bulldogs to dominate early on.

Viliame Kikau, known more for his hard-hitting runs than his delicate grubbers, surprised everyone with a well-placed kick that led to the first try of the game.

Taking advantage of another Sharks error, this time from Sione Katoa, the Bulldogs capitalized on the opportunity with Reed Mahoney scoring from dummy half to extend their lead to 12-0.

The blue and whites were firing on all cylinders, showing their hunger for victory.

In the end, it was a true display of grit and determination from the Bulldogs, showing that they have what it takes to come out on top in a close contest.

As they continue to build momentum and showcase their skills on the field, the Bulldogs are sure to strike fear into the hearts of their opponents.
