Good run by Daly but then the Sigma Lions win a penalty. Glimpse there of what Vunipola offers in the loose with a nice delayed pull-back pass. Sigma Lions clear upfield.
Possible dangerous clearout being reviewed here by Simmonds. Looks as though Van der Berg went beyond the horizontal. Only a penalty.

Fagerson on for his Lions debut, replacing Sinckler, and Vunipola as well for Jones. Daly’s also on, playing at 13, replacing Russell. Davies on too for Price.
Penalty to the British and Irish Lions at the scrum! They’ll put that into touch on the Sigma Lions’ 22.

Slick from Finn
Russell puts in a pinpoint kick to the left wing where Adams is all on his own, and it’s an easy finish for the Welshman to grab his second try 👏

Grubber from the Sigma Lions picked up by Adams, back to Russell who tries a touchfinder but overcooks it into touch. Sigma Lions get a lineout in the tourists’ half but it goes wrong and the tourists try to counter… but knock on.

Nice run by Itoje this time of the visitors’ 22. Back for a penalty. Sigma Lions go for an interception but miss, nice run by Watson before he spills the ball forward.
Simmonds on for his Lions debut, replacing Faletau.
