Australia Defeats British & Irish Lions 22-12 in Final Sydney Test

News summary

The British & Irish Lions fell short of achieving a series whitewash as they were defeated 22-12 by Australia in the final Test of the 2025 tour. Despite strong performances from some players like Hugo Keenan and Jac Morgan, wet and challenging conditions hampered the Lions' effectiveness, leading to costly handling errors and defensive lapses. Key players such as Bundee Aki and others struggled significantly, with multiple uncharacteristic mistakes contributing to Australia's victory. The Lions' playmakers, including Finn Russell and Blair Kinghorn, found it difficult to create opportunities against the resilient Wallabies defense. The match was further disrupted by weather delays due to thunder and lightning, which affected the rhythm and momentum. Ultimately, Australia’s physicality and tactical execution under adverse conditions denied the Lions a clean sweep, although Andy Farrell’s team secured the series overall.
