We will have the details in a moment of scotlands fantastic win, irelands victory injapan, as well as a triumph for the english women in new zealand. They were playing before the British Irish Lions took to the field against the maori all blacks. This was a vitally important match For The Lions. They were close to full strength and, in difficult conditions, they won by 32 10. Many lions on show will have made a strong case for a start against the all blacks next weekend. Our Sports Correspondent was at the match. On the north island in new zealand, This Is Maori Heartland and, when the lions are in town, they pull out all the stops. There are thousands of people here for this world record attempt at the haka and what is more, they are all facing the lions team hotel. Just another reminder For The Lions, as if they needed it, whose turf they are on. Then, it was time for at the maori all blacks, a side steeped in culture and history, to lay down their own challenge. Early on, the lions were in control, but as soon as their concentration wavered, the maoris showed once again on this tour, that the lions found their slightest mistake punished. Leigh halfpenny rarely falters in sight of the posts their opponents returned, keen to snuff out the danger man, illegally, according to the referee. Now, with a player advantage, the lions made their pressure count. A penalty try, the first of the match.

This was a morale boosting win for Warren Gatlands players, but will they have enough to pass the ultimate test in seven days time . We are building our performances, building on the games on saturday and tuesday, and i think tonight was another step forward towards what our goals are and, obviously, that is to beat the all blacks. To do so, you have to be the best in the world and we do not have a huge timeframe, but we are using our time well and i thought we used tonight well and i thought our set piece was good. There is always room for improvement. There are a lot of things that we can work on and we will go back to the video and we will kick on into tuesday. That will have done wonders for their confidence. They have now won three out of their five matches on tour and Warren Gatland was in confident mood after that victory. The all blacks head coach steve hansen has criticised the lions style of play and their tactics and set up this past week and Warren Gatland hit back. This could be a great rugby series, everyone can get excited. Whenever we have been in new zealand, the hospitality and the i could not speak highly enough about that. I think they feel stuff, some of the stuff that people have been saying, i think puts a bit of a dampener on the tour. That is professional sport. You have to live with it and deal with it and move on. All i have taken from it is that maybe he is more worried than normal, because he is normally so calm and collected and he seems to be delivering a lot of comments about us and things he does or does not know about us. That is normally a sign of a man who is a little bit worried. Ross moriarty is the Second Player to pull out of the tour because of injury. Scotland, who are touring in new zealand and australia, but Warren Gatland has decided against using england or ireland eddie jones says call ups should be made on merit, rather than geographical proximity.

His point, i suppose. Ijust know how difficult it is. In buenos aires, you have to get around the world and acclimatise. The thoughts of Warren Gatland, alan dell and finn Russell Willjoin up with the lions. It is the first time they have beaten the wallabies in sydney. For gregor townsend. Tussles between these two nations have, in recent years, been tight. Only one point separated their last two meetings, so best to make an impact. Early. Duncan taylor did just that. Quick thinking catching the wallabies off guard. Finn russell, one of those heading to join up with the lions squad in new zealand would do the same, as scotland pressed further ahead. Nothing michaeljagger could do about that, although his team started to find their range. The hosts edged closer. Now the wallabies were making their presence felt, on the pitch and on the scoreboard. §u511§l§ egeeg 15493959533122 ,. , w ,. Form, it was close.

The boys did everything out there. We are proud of the players, but for everyone involved, it was right to put away those frustrations and come away with such an important win. It is great, credit to the players. And the third home nations win came from ireland who beatjapan, 50 22. Despite having 11 players on lions duty, ireland were too good for the home side, who ran in two tries. The second test is in tokyo next saturday. England will win their test series in argentina with victory in the second test tonight in santa fe, eddiejones described the match as something of a slug fest. England needed a last minute try, to win the first test 38 12. Jones warned that argentina will be much stronger this time around. They are probably more concerned about themselves. They have not had a good record of late. I think they are heading towards a bit more of a traditional style.

You do not have to conform to anything, it is where you can go and is be yourself in the water. The sports that i have done, i wanted to be the best that i could be and with it being in the olympics, the funding that comes will be amazing because it will allow everyone to be on exactly the same level and it will be about talent. If it it is no wading pool, everyone will be training there. [feelthey dfemt , i have a completely different view. Australia and americans. They are able to put us on the same level.
