Highlanders Beat Lions 23-22.

IALT: Write about the Highlanders win over the Lions. 

The Otago Highlanders have beaten the British and Irish Lions in their 4th game of their New Zealand tour.As you guys all know the game last night was played under the roof of  Forsyth Barr stadium in Dunedin,first off both teams ran into the stadium and got ready to play but first off the Highlanders payed respect to the Lions for coming to New Zealand and also for making their way down to Dunedin.So they handed over one of the sword's of Highlander to the Lions,it was nice to see both team's respecting each other.But it was time to get down to bizness,and off they were playing the game the Highlanders way and speed shortly the home team was in with a try to one of the home crowd's favourites Naholo and shortly after Naholo scored his try then it was Highlanders forward Coltman with a try at the back of a driving scrum.Then Sopoaga slotting 2 penalties and also 2 conversions,but you know the Lions they always come back, in reply the Lions scored 3 tries through,Joseph,Seymour and Warburton.The Lions were leading 22,and the Highlanders were on  20 but then the Highlanders were awarded with a penalty with 5 minutes to go,Everyone was counting on Marty to slot the ball over and that's what he did and that gave the Highlanders the lead,but it was too late for the Lions to do everything.But over all that was one of the best rugby games that I have ever seen and great job to the Highlanders who got a historical win over British and Irish Lions.
