| Lions hang on to deny Cheetahs |
06 June: The British and Irish Lions had a major scare before completing their third victory of the tour to South African on Saturday. After racing into a 20-0 lead with tries from Stephen Ferris and Keith Earls, a second-half comeback brough the home side right back into the game before the tourists hung on for a narrow win by 26 points to 24. Coach Ian McGeechan will have been pleased by the start but disappointed to surrender such a commanding lead with the First Test against the Springboks just two weeks away on 20th June.
