New South Wales have clinched Rugby League's State of Origin series in one of the most thrilling deciders of all time to break Queensland hearts.

James Tedesco scored a long-range try in the final minute to help the Blues snatch victory after they had squandered a 12-point lead in the second half.

There was to be late drama as Blake Ferguson made a break down the sideline in the final minute, throwing to Tedesco to win the game 26-20.

It’s the Blues’ first series win at home since 2004.
