Salesi Rayasi scored twice for the Hurricanes in their Super Rugby Aotearoa clash against Chiefs last night however it was not enough as they were beaten 35-29.

The Chiefs pulled off a miraculous second-half comeback to end their year-long losing run at 11 games.

Four second-half tries propelled the Chiefs to an unlikely victory.

All Blacks loose forward Luke Jacobson was a standout for the Chiefs, scoring the match-winning try and got a turnover penalty that sealed the treasured victory.

Damian McKenzie also proved influential after switching to first five-eighth midway through the second spell.

The Crusaders will take on the Blues at 2.35pm today.
