WELLINGTON (Reuters) - Ngani Laumape scored two late tries, one that began deep inside the Wellington Hurricanes' territory as the home side secured a scrappy 41-22 victory over South Africa's Stormers at Wellington Regional Stadium on Friday.

Laumape's second try was the result of an audacious chip-pass from All Blacks flyhalf Beauden Barrett about 15 metres out from his own line and with flanker Brad Shields in the sinbin as the home side weathered a relentless Stormers attack.
