Another Lions penalty, not releasing
Bumpkins get a relieving penalty, Lions sealing the ball off
19 Minutes to go in the match… almost said practice match
Matt Stevens drops the ball like a sack of suds
Held up over the line, Murray
Try Sean O’Brien
Lions 57 / 0 Country XV
Bumpkins try?
TMO
Looked like a double movement to me… or a knock
A knock and a double move…
5m Scrum for the Bumpkins… can they score?
No, they can’t
7 Minutes to go in the match… it has become cumbersome
Penalty right in front for the Lions…
O’Driscoll over
TMO
No try, foot in touch by Brian
Less than 2 minutes to go
O’Driscoll knocks… but the Bumpkins knocked first
Less than a minute to go… can we have a last hoorah?
Hooter goes, Lions keep the ball alive
Try Jonathan Davies, right corner
Final Score: British & Irish Lions 64 / 0 Combined Country XV
