Wallabies Win 22-12 to Deny Lions a Tour Clean Sweep in Wild Third Test
NEW SOUTH WALES, AUSTRALIA, AUG 02 – The Wallabies avoided a series whitewash with a 22-12 win but reflected on missed chances and squad confidence issues during the series, officials said.
- The Wallabies defeated the British and Irish Lions 22-12 at Sydney's Olympic Stadium on Saturday, avoiding a series whitewash.
- The Lions had already secured the series with wins in Brisbane and Melbourne, and the third Test was marked by chaotic play and a near-hour lightning delay.
- Australia led 15-0 early with tries from Dylan Pietsch and Max Jorgensen, while Welshman Jac Morgan scored for the Lions amid heavy rain and intense rivalry.
- Lions coach Andy Farrell said, "We wanted to win every game," and Wallabies coach Schmidt praised the team's rebound after last week's disappointment before 80,312 fans.
- The Wallabies' victory lifted team spirits ahead of their upcoming back-to-back matches against the reigning world champion Springboks on South African soil, though concerns remain about their consistency in holding onto leads.
