Unbelievable. Was that Williams again?

razorblunt

Williams turned his head away from it.

gazump123

Fekitoa was in under posts there if he played on.

Last 4 minutes and it's nothing but 2 kicks. Alas that's the problem with Rugby.

Has a minute and a half to take the kick so that is that.

molloyjh

That's actually probably a fair call. He didn't play the ball.

BBDBB

Scrum!

Pudsy33

What the ****

awec

That is a penalty IMO. He caught the ball.

super_furry

Wow!

pickarooney

Complete instinct. Harsh, just like last week's ending.

its_phil

Poite realising if he ends a great series on that call, there'd be war

LuckyGent88

It's a fair call but is that correct by the rule book??

Crazy stuff

On what planet is that not accidental offside or a tackle in the air?

There is no outcome where this is an AB penalty.

EDIT: Nah Im just wrong and emotional, he grabbed at it, thought the ball just hit him

I'm wrong twice. Romain is a good man.

Landed on his arm.

Hope your pushing at home

Referee seeing what he wanted to see. What a joke.

fitz

Read is never reaching that ball, and he makes contact with the man in the air. How is that not a Lion's penalty?

CurryFlavoured

Ohhhhhhh. I was sure that was a penalty.

irishman86

What a bull**** call

Stream a bit behind. :pac:

That should have been a run in. Amazing lack of composure but understandable given the pressure. AB's would have been in there.

Look at his head, he had no idea that ball was coming anywhere near him.

If this swings the Lions way, the salt from NZ will be unreal.

molloyjh

Terrible control there from NZ at the scrum. The pressure they've been put under has really caused all sorts of problems for them.

ThisRegard

Jesus Christ, what happened to their ability to pass correctly

Schwanz

Heart in mouth moments here

CurryFlavoured

Christ that was a golden opportunity to counter.

molloyjh

Peyper really didn't want to call that in touch at all.

Yeah! My Sky Go is a bit behind alright.

Game over. Watch a match. Great series in the end.

Stheno

So the series ends as a draw?

So do the AB's win on aggregate or is it a draw?

irishman86

NZ robbed with that, a choke call by the ref

Diabhal Beag

You'd swear they both lost. Great series.

iancm25

Well a draw is pants

Poite didn't want to call it at the end

Schwanz

It's time Sky looked for a better commentary team.

Damp as f**k.

I'm cool with AB's on aggregate if you are?

BBDBB

All over

Great drama

Well done to both sides
NZ best side in the world
Lions showed great heart and a brilliant defence

Eoinbmw

What a feckin anti climax there needs to be extra time!!!:P

irishbucsfan

Brilliant match. Brilliant series.

As good a series as I reckon we'll ever get. Fair play to the ABs.

Noone gave this Lions team a chance, fair play to the coaching staff and players.

razorblunt

Neck roll on Faletau in front of Poite at the end.

awec

I think it's one of those thing where NZ retain it because they weren't beaten.

molloyjh

Well a lot of us, myself included, thought this tour would be 3-0. That's a cracking result for them in fairness. Can't escape the feeling that the Lions stopped NZ from winning more than anything else.

BBDBB

Time for a beer lads?
