Lions coach Warren Gatland had said the contest would be a good indicator of where his side are ahead of three tests against the world champion Springboks starting next week, and there will be some concern. We learned a lot of things," Lions captain Conor Murray said at the post-match presentation. "But we can be proud, we came back from 17-3 down and corrected things in the second half. It was really physical, we haven’t come up against that yet on this tour and the breakdown will be huge in this series. The Lions finally made that numerical advantage pay when Jones burrowed over from close range four minutes into the second period.
