Sharks made it three successive United Rugby Championship victories by beating Stormers 21-15 in Durban.

Tries from Ethan Hooker and captain Siya Kolisi, both converted by Siya Masuku, put them 14-0 ahead inside 17 minutes before Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu’s drop goal got Stormers on the board.

Leolin Zas crossed for Stormers to reduce the deficit further but Andre Esterhuizen went over for Sharks’ third try, Masuku again adding the extras, before the visitors were awarded a late penalty try to claim a losing bonus point.
