New Zealand Vs British & Irish Lions

New Zealand Vs British & Irish Lions

The British and Irish Lions secured an incredible 24-21 victory over New Zealand in this test match from Westpac Stadium in Wellington to level the series at 1-1 leaving all to play for in Eden Park next week. Sonny Bill Williams was sent off after just 25 minutes for a dangerous shoulder charge to the head of Anthony Watson. The All Blacks were still in the game despite the red card, and began building a lead on the scoreboard which seemed very difficult for The Lions. However, thanks to tries from Faletau and Murray, and some fantastic kicking from Farrell they just did enough to edge out this victory, the first New Zealand have suffered on home soil since 2009. This sets up what will surely be an incredible game of rugby next weekend, be sure to tune in!
