Here are the stunning tries (and big slip-up) from Lions' nerve-jangling 1st Test win

George North and Israel Folau: Same time next week, please.

THIS COAST-TO-COAST move inspired by Will Genia rocked the Lions and gave Australia an early lead.

George North hit back in emphatic style.

But Israel Folau was at it again before half time, stepping Jonny Sexton to cruise in over the whitewash.

In the second half, Alex Cuthbert ran in this beauty to put the Lions in control…

… but it still came down to the most slender of margins.

Unlucky for beale the surface where he was kicking was horrible because a scrum had just taken place there he should have been allowed move it. The wallabies will be hurting though as they’d set it up for a win in brisbane to get them off to a good start but that hasnt happened so expect it to go to the third
