Justin Sangster scored a try in the final minute to give the Hurricanes a triumph over the Crusaders on Friday and keep the Super Rugby champions winless.
The seven-time defending champion Crusaders couldn’t hold out in a 14-10 result as they crashed to four straight defeats for the first time in their history, heaping more pressure on new coach Rob Penney.
However, the Crusaders were reduced to 14 men soon afterwards when reserve lock Jamie Hannah was shown a yellow card. “It’s frustrating but the boys have to stick tight. We’ve got a young group turning up giving it a go and that’s all we can ask for.” Crusaders loose forward Cullen Grace scored from close range to level the scores midway through the second spell but they paid for their ill-discipline over the closing stages.
