The British and Irish Lions won their first tour series in 12 years in dramatic fashion as they beat Australia in the second Test.
The Lions claimed series victory Down Under on Saturday, replicating their achievements from their last tour win in 2013.
Australia appeared to be heading to a crucial win to keep the series alive, as they led 26-24 in the final minutes.
But Hugo Keenan scored a try with only seconds left to secure a win for the Lions in dramatic fashion.
Wallabies star Harry Wilson ran straight up to the referee after the try, appealing for a potential issue in the build-up.
It led to the try being checked by TMO, as they looked at a potential high tackle from Lions’ Jack Morgan.
However, the try was viewed to be all good and the Lions secured their first series win since 2013.
The game was played in front of a monster crowd at MCG, with over 90,000 fans in attendance.
That is the most ever in the stands for a Lions game – and they witnessed another piece of history.
Andy Farrell’s men were 18 points down in the first half, making it the Lions’ biggest ever comeback.
Australian legend David Campese told talkSPORT: “The Lions showed a lot of heart tonight. They wanted it more than the Aussies and it was a fantastic game in front of 90,000 people at the MCG.”
On the winning try, Campese added: “He went in with his arms, and that’s all you have to do. For me, it was legit. It looked alright. That was a perfectly good clean out.
“The Lions played well, they deserved it. The Australians lost a bit of spark.”
