Rebels can’t control their own ball, Tuilagi grabs it….
Tuilagi knocks… a couple of phases later
2 Minutes remain in the match… and as expected the Rebels won’t do it today
Rebels advantage played… and they come back for the penalty as the hooter goes
Rebels inside the 22
Another Rebels penalty, quick tap… they drive Woodward into touch… game over
Final Score: British & Irish Lions 35 / 0 Melbourne Rebels

Ok thanks GBS, online commentators were speaking a lot about him in first half so seems like he ran out of steam in 2nd half maybe a lack of match fitness after being out injured for a little bit, catch you next time
