Beauden Barrett contributed 14 points from a try‚ three conversions and a penalty while Stormers wing SP Marais scored 13 points from three penalties and two conversions.
The All Black flyhalf appeared to crawl his way over the line for the game’s final and ultimately decisive try that he converted himself.
The Stormers came with a clear plan to play a territorial-based game and use their pack to put the Hurricanes under pressure. It paid dividends although it was not enough to ultimately seal victory. Inside centre Jordie Barrett‚ wing Wes Goosen and Beauden Barrett added to prop Ben May’s early try while giant wing Ben Lam was a constant carrying threat.
The Hurricanes looked to have total control of the match when Jordie Barrett pounced on a clever grubber from scrumhalf Richard Judd to score on 22 minutes. That came after the Stormers were reduced to 14 men when flyhalf Jean-Luc du Plessis was sin-binned for killing the ball.They slowed the pace and the forwards took control. Kolisi crashed over on the half-hour to bring them within two points of the lead.
