CAPE TOWN (Reuters) - New South Wales Waratahs' Michael Hooper scored a try two minutes from time to snatch a 32-30 win over South Africa’s Stormers in a Super Rugby clash at Newlands on Saturday.

The flank profited from a tight-head at a scrum five metres from the line to steal the win after the hosts went down to 14 men with 25 minutes left after a red card for wing Leolin Zas.
