The Māori All Blacks have maintained their perfect record against Samoa after winger Shaun Stevenson scored two tries to secure a comfortable 35-10 win at an empty Sky Stadium in Wellington last night.

Sean Wainui, Ash Dixon, Whetu Douglas scored a try each for the Maori All Blacks.

Otere Black had a perfect night from the boot, landing all three of his attempts.

The match had to be staged behind closed doors due to restrictions on mass gatherings in Alert Level 2, resulting in an unusual atmosphere for the first Māori All Blacks game in Wellington since 1993.

The two teams meet again at Mount Smart Stadium in Auckland next Saturday, prior to the All Blacks’ test against Tonga.
