Highlanders Beat Lions

Highlanders Beat Lions

WALT: reflect on an article that we have read.

The Otago Highlanders have beaten the lions 23-22 in a thrilling match of rugby. A penalty was given to the Highlanders with five minutes to go which gave the Highlanders the opportunity for a conversion to win the whole game. Earlier during the game Naholo and Coltman scored tries for the team with Sapuanga with two penalties and 2 conversion. In the Lions team they scored three tries Joseph, Seymour and Warburton. The Lions have only won two games out of four during the Lions series. The Lions next game will be against the NZ Maori All Blacks this weekend. I thought that the Highlanders where going to lose because they were down some point in the second half but they kept going and they won the game by one point. What I mostly liked about the game was when the Highlanders gave the sword to the Lions. I got this article from KiwiKids News. What I didn't like about the game was when they just kept clearing the ball because when they went to kick the ball the other team would kick it back and then they would kick it back to them and it would just keep going until they decide to take the ball and run. Good job to the Highlanders for winning their game against the Lions.
