Lions Face Injury Crisis Before Australia Test

British & Irish Lions full-back Blair Kinghorn suffered a left knee injury during the team's 36-24 win over the Brumbies, leaving the field after 25 minutes despite trying to continue. Head coach Andy Farrell stated Kinghorn was in good spirits but the extent of his injury is still unclear, compounding concerns after Elliot Daly's earlier tour-ending injury. Tom Curry and Bundee Aki also sustained knocks in the same match, further depleting the Lions' backline options. Freddie Steward is reportedly the leading candidate to replace Kinghorn if he is sidelined, due to the squad's lack of depth at full-back. Despite these setbacks and a performance marked by errors, the Lions remain unbeaten in Australia. The team continues to manage a growing injury list as they prepare for the first Test against Australia on July 19.
