    Kieran Read takes the pragmatic approach.

    He decides he will punish Johnny Sexton straying offside with a three-point kick.

    If it goes it pushes the lead out beyond two converted tries with 20 minutes to go.

    Sonny Bill Williams takes the first chance to hammer up into channel vacated by Ben Te'o.

    It takes both Owen Farrell and Johnny Sexton to bring him down, which means there must be space elsewhere...

    Sublime skill allied with simple, devastating execution, and just like that the All Blacks score their second try through Rieko Iaone. That offload under pressure from All Blacks captain Read through traffic off the floor in the rain is as good as you'll see.

    It's prompted a bristling response from Lions boss Warren Gatland. Johnny Sexton is on and the dynamic of the Lions gameplan will change. The axis of Sexton and Owen Farrell will give extra width and attacking potency to the Lions as they try to rein in this 12 point deficit.

    Warren Gatland throws his joker on the table.

    Centre Ben Te'o, who has been very good, makes way for Johnny Sexton at inside centre.

    It is a revival of a double-playmaker axis that has only been tried out once on tour - against the Crusaders after Stuart Hogg's injury.

    What a time to squeeze the Lions scrum - and the pick up and flick by Keiran Read is just incredible.

    As soon as he gets that ball away the rest the New Zealand backs understand the damage that fine piece of skill has done to the Lions defence and they rarely fail to convert. Very difficult for the Lions from here.

    Converted try - New Zealand 20-8 Lionspublished at 55 mins

    Rieko Ioane (con Barrrett)

    The videotape cannot save the Lions.

    Instead is shows up a superb offload from Kieran Read from face down in the muck to spring the move.

    It was scored by the flying Ioane, but the new Kiwi front row claim an assist for that try. They sent the Lions into reverse to set up that try.

    Beauden Barrett slots from way out wide and the Lions have a mountain to climb.

    Rieko Ioane speeds into the corner and the stadium PA fires up the celebration music.

    But referee Jaco Peyper is going back to the review both Kieran Read's pick-up at the back of the scrum and the grounding by the wing....

    Ben Te'o rush defence forces the ball out of Israel Dagg's grasps and for a brief second it looks like Elliot Daly has a chance to fly-hack and chase upfield.

    But, no.

    The ref calls it back for a knock-on against the Lions centre.

    Lions remain unable to slow down the New Zealand ball.

    Warren Gatland has to be thinking of putting on Sam Warburton to do exactly that.

    After the thrills and spills of the opening 45 minutes, this is hand-to-hand combat.

    One-out runners, heavy artillery and so far the Lions are standing up to the barrage. just outside their own 22m.

    More rain sweeps horizontally across the ground as Maro Itoje comes on for Alun Wyn Jones.

    Proactive substitution which is met with raucous applause from the Lions fans.

    Further evidence that Liam Williams provides a far greater threat from full-back.

    His attacking instinct is just what the Lions need, in a game when opportunities are scarce.

    As Wayne Pivac told the BBC this week, he always plays what's in front of him, always looks to counter.

    It was a rare loose kick from the All Blacks, but he glided through the first line of defence with a lethal combination of speed and footwork.

    The decision to draft him into the Test team already looks to have paid off.

    Let's find out about the depth on the bench then.

    Maro Itoje prowling and flexing on the touchline trots on to replace Alun Wyn Jones.

    The Saracen looks psyched like Ant and Dec in the mid-90s.

    Jerome Kaino has given way to Ardie Savea on the All Black flank.
