An important feature of a rugby match is the try, which is worth five points. The picture at top illustrates the old saying, "The whole point of rugby is fourteen men letting one man get an extra yard ahead." That man (he's the one in black and white whom everyone else is following) runs to the opposition's try zone and touches the ball down to the ground. It is not sufficient for him to simply carry it in; the ball must be touched to the ground. The second image is typical: players raise their arms in triumph; the ref does it to signal that the try is awarded.
