Chiefs 6-34 Lions
A good stretching take from Courtney Lawes, a canter into space by Justin Tipuric and some sleight of hand from Iain Henderson in the loose.
The Lions forwards are showing their class now. They are being given the stage by the Chiefs though.

CycleStuffblog: The best bit about following the Lions matches on BBC Sport is reading all the heavily one-eyed national viewpoints. It's great.
Ben Smith: Looks like the midweek team have decided to show up at last
Michael Harris: there are people suggesting Liam Williams hasnt done anything all tour? Liam is the tall guy at 15 today. No blue skull cap ok!

Image source, Getty ImagesThat Jared Payne try showed what we all know Liam Williams is capable of. Great angle, an injection of pace, a wiggle of the hips, and perfect timing of the pass. With that intervention alone, he’s laid a big marker down to Warren Gatland. His back three colleagues Jack Nowell and Eliott Daly have both enhanced their claims as well.

Chiefs 6-34 Lions
James Haskell has been trucking around like a rabid bear today, into everything 110%.
Another formidable hit in defence.
Dan Cole is up and ready for the scrum on the Lions 22m after a cheap shot from Mitchell Brown at the back of a ruck.

Former Lions and England wingerIt's certainly been a quick second half so far - a real step up in tempo and intensity. The stats read really well from a Lions perspective and we now expect them to dominate territory, set-piece and possession. That second penalty try in as many games is a simple indicator as to their dominance up front.
Aside all of that it's so good to see the Lions show their counter-attacking ability, using forwards and backs, and it was a lovely finish from Jack Nowell before a similarly good score from Jared Payne.
It's taken a few weeks, but we've seen a couple of ruthless, well executed tries by the Lions. That's not to say that driving mails and scrum penalties aren't good execution, it's just exciting to see something from the backline.

Chiefs 6-34 Lions
The Lions blitz has sucked some life out of the stadium.
International Space Station levels of atmosphere as the Chiefs are forced into an injury change.
They are back up to a full complement though as Mitchell Brown returns from the bin.

Jared Payne (con Biggar)
Image source, Getty ImagesThe Lions cutting loose now....
Jack Nowell collects a brain-dead chip ahead and feeds Liam Williams on the burst.
The Wales full-back jinks, shakes his snake-hips and cuts the scattered Chiefs defence to ribbons.
His off-load gives Jared Payne a stroll in.
This is a Chiefs team without its' main men and down to 14 after Mitch Brown's yellow, but this is exactly the shot of confidence the Lions squad wanted heading into the first Test.

Read into this what you will.
Elliot Daly is withdrawn and replaced with Tommy Seymour immediately after that break and lovely pass for the try.
Is he being saved for matchday duty on Saturday?

Chris Jones
BBC 5 live rugby union reporter at the Waikato StadiumEasily the Lions' best try on the tour to date.
Forwards and backs interlinking superbly, and Iain Henderson sending out a bullet of a pass off his left hand to help set up Jack Nowell.

Jack Nowell (con Biggar)
Image source, Getty ImagesThe try of the tour so far from the Lions.
It all starts with a fluffed Chiefs line-out deep in Lions territory, Elliot Daly streaks free up the line, finds Jared Payne with a superb pass inside, the ball is recycled and back and forwards combine to feed Jack Nowell who carves inside the cover for the score.
Two more for pot from Dan Biggar.

And Mitchell Brown is sent to the sin-bin for the Chiefs for his part in foiling a legitimate try, taking them down to 14 for the next 10 minutes.

Image source, Getty ImagesLiam Williams has had a little more ball in this half, and while we’re yet to see him slice through, he still makes yards even in heavy traffic.
Speaking of heavy traffic, he was on the receiving end of a dumper truck tackle a few moments ago, but he kept the ball safe, and delivered it on a plate. They make them tough in Waunarlwydd.

Penalty try
The Chiefs resort to blatant cheating to stop the Lions rumble, throwing bodies into the legs of the tourists' driving maul.
The referee is straight under the sticks to award the penalty try.
No conversion, instead an automatic seven points nowadays.
A chunky lead now for the Lions. Blow this one and the midweek team really will butterfingers.

Eh up.
The line-out comes to nothing apart from some serious handbags.
Alun Wyn Jones is immediately into the thick of it, exchanging less-than-pleasantries with a Chiefs prop.
Another line-out to come for the Lions...

Scratch that. Courtney Lawes is heading off for a head injury assessment.
Alun Wyn Jones is on in his place for the time being.
He will have a line-out five metres from the Chiefs line to get his teeth into...
