- New Zealand 12-8 Great Britain
- Lions suffer their second defeat in a row
Great Britain’s tour to the southern hemisphere has gone from bad to worse, going down 12-8 to New Zealand in a scrappy encounter at Eden Park for their second defeat in a row.
After a 14-6 loss to Tonga last weekend in their return after a 12-year absence, the Lions promised to roar in Auckland. But it was another limp effort, this time as part of a historic rugby league triple-header at the home of the All Blacks, another display largely devoid of spark and bite.
