The Whitelock brothers combine in defense to strip Vito. Canterbury are causing all sorts of problems at the breakdown.

Leggo Welly!!!

Good work from the Lions pack. After a number of tight pick and goes, space was created outside. Lima Sopoaga spotted the gap, stepped off his left and crossed the line untouched.

Schwalger and Reddish make it over the line after an intricate line out move but Canterbury hold it up. Another chance for Wellington with a 5m scrum

The Lions are getting good change from flooding the breakdowns out wide. Vito wins the latest penalty as Sopoaga sends the ball to the corner. Wellington on the attack 2m short.

Tyler Bleyendaal takes it to the line off the back of a scrum and is carried to the try line by his pack. Off the next phase Tom Taylor takes the ball at pace and is hacked down just short, he stretches but looses the ball forward across the line. Replays beg to differ with the referee. Big call!

Despite playing into a bit of a wind Canterbury have the upper hand on the possession and the territory stats! 20 minutes gone.

Andrew Ellis is caught with the ball and is smashed by Naikatini. The Lions flood the breakdown and force the penalty. Sopoaga knock it to the corner for an attacking line out.

An unconventional kick from Sopoaga makes it through the posts. Good kick from Sopoaga who had the 2nd poorest kicking percentage of the league.

A poor kick Wilson bounces kindly into Patrick Osborne's hands. He beats a poor tackle from Procter and grubbers in behind. The winger's raw pace is enough to beat Wilson to the ball before offloading out the back door to Andrew Ellis who is on hand to finish off a superb individaul effort from Osborne
