Can the British and Irish Lions end 46 years of hurt against the mighty world champions New Zealand?!

🤜The all powerful All Blacks!🤛

The All Blacks have not lost at Eden Park stadium in New Zealand since 1994 with an incredible 37 wins. The last time the Lions came to this stadium in 2005 they got blown away with a 48-18 defeat! The last time the Lions actually won in New Zealand was back in 1971.

So what chance do the Lions have this Saturday? Well it will be one of the Lions toughest challenges as they are taking on an exceptional All Black world champion team! They will no doubt need to be agressive and play at a high intensity for the full 80 minutes. A good kicking game will be essential and like always discipline will be paramount.

If they can win the first Test they will surely have the belief they can go on and take one more to take the series. If not then they will have to pull out two of their finest ever performances to come out series winners.

All the Test's will be in New Zealand with the first and third Test at Eden Park and the second Test at the Westpac Stadium.

What ever happens it will surely have an electric atmosphere and hopefully some memorable moments!
🤞

Thanks for reading!

The all blacks were always favourites surely. Decent game though

Yeh for sure especially at Eden Park. Really mistakes is what led to each of the three tries by New Zealand so if they can tighten up there for the next Test then I think scoreline wise it will be a lot closer.

Love the all blacks..... and their Haka

Yeh one of the most thrilling things to watch in sport!

Very nice post , i loved reading it, followed you and upvoted,resteemed also :D

Great thank you very much @sweetiebo

We will never know till they try))

Yeh only wish it was on free tv rather than Sky as it starts at 8 in the morning.

Guy on the left seems so small comparing to other big bears. I wonder if he is a runner or smth.
My friend also participates in a team like that. They are so huge... my god.
He said they always break their ears heh)

Yeh they get what's called cauliflower ears, it's from all the stamping on their ears when theyre on the ground.
I used to play rugby and you would get some really high energy high impact games!

That's not the best feeling to be periodicaly stamped on your ears lol.
Yeaa i can imagine the ammount of adrenalin after every impact.
I'm doing martial arts and i don't think we have this kinda of impacts there.. It's safer to fight than doing rugby..))
