The British and Irish Lions will face an Australian selection
Launching the fifteenth world “You’ve come a long way,” Mathieu Bastrod said after his return
On Wednesday 19 July the British and Irish Lions announced a match like no other. Thus, the latter will face the squad of Australia and New Zealand, and the match will take place in 2025. As promised. As part of their tour of Oceania 2025, the British and Irish Lions will face a select group made up of Australian and New Zealand players. This match will be the first in over thirty years and will definitely be worth watching. Thus, this has not happened since 1989 and this match against Anzac, the acronym used until 1989 to define this mixed selection between Australia and New Zealand, is scheduled to take place on 12 July 2025 in Adelaide. It will be followed by three official test matches between the Lions and Australia, in Brisbane (July 19), Melbourne (July 26) and Sydney (August 2).
prestigious game
This match has not been played since 1989, when Australia lost New Zealand 19-15 to the Lions in Brisbane. However, they were mostly Australians. Only three All Blacks took part in the match, which was then scheduled between two Blacks Tests. In 2025, the Lions (players from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland) will have a lot to do as they will play nine matches in Australia during this tour, which is the next tour in history. They must also face the five Australian teams that play in Super Rugby, the tournament that includes Australian and New Zealand clubs.
