Match Highlights: Hurricanes v Sharks

A strong second half performance saw the Hurricanes claim a 38-22 home win over the Sharks in round 3 of Super Rugby. The first half was a sea-saw battle, with the lead changing hands numerous times as both sides crossed for two tries apiece and added a penalty to head into the halftime break deadlocked at 17-17. The start of the second half was the Ben Lam show as the powerful winger raced in for two early tries to see the Hurricanes out to 31-17 lead. The Hurricanes then ran in their fifth try to all but wrap up the match, with the Sharks only response a late consolation score to deny the hosts a bonus point in their first defeat of the season.
