British and Irish Lions complete biggest comeback to clinch Test series over Australia

News summary

British & Irish Lions coach Andy Farrell praised his team's remarkable comeback victory over Australia, describing the win as "what dreams are made of." The Lions overcame an 18-point deficit, recovering from 23-5 down to secure a 29-26 win at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, marking their biggest comeback in test history and clinching the series with a game to spare. Farrell highlighted the players' lifelong dreams of being Lions and their composure under pressure, especially during the dramatic final minutes when Hugo Keenan scored the decisive try. Despite Australia's physical play and early dominance, the Lions capitalized on their opponents' fatigue and injuries to overturn the scoreline. Farrell acknowledged Australia's strong performance but emphasized that the Lions deserved the win for their resilience and fight. The series now moves to Sydney for a final test, where the Lions aim to complete a rare series whitewash.
