Just when everyone started to think the All Blacks were becoming pretty much unstoppable at Eden Park – the Lions put up an explosive show.

Trailing 13-3, Ireland flanker O’Brien pounced four minutes before half-time, finishing off a spectacular 80-metre move that was started by full-back Liam Williams’ dazzling running. Fans in the stadium were rejoicing:

As were Lions supporters on the internet who were pretty ecstatic:

Lions fans reckon it’s one of the best tries they have ever seen:

The Lions did put up a strong fight, but in the end, the better team won.And so the wait for a Test victory over the All Blacks – they last achieved one 24 years ago – goes on.
