For the Chiefs it was to be the night that crowned all nights – they won the Super Rugby trophy for the first time in 17 years.

In the first quarter the chiefs struggled to get past the wave of Sharks but quickly turned the game around after the break.
A hammering 37-6 was the final score; fireworks, confetti and the ecstatic team bought the night to a victorious end.
