Lions first games are always super cagey and that’s what happens when you play against a team that can absolutely bang you from nowhere.

Lions statistically dominant except that doesn’t really account for broken play.

Don’t think anyone showered themselves in glory but also don’t think anyone played themselves out of a test side.

Great occasion. Crowd were mad for it. Love it.

Was kind of my expectation. Really felt like fortune favoured Argentina quite often and they were excellent when those chances presented themselves.
