The Lions are currently leading the Brumbies in Canberra in their second-last game before the first Test on July 19.
It has been another scrappy performance from the touring side, mixing error-strewn passages with some exciting attacking phases.
The big story to come out of the first half is the injury to fullback Blair Kinghorn, who was forced off on 25 minutes, after clearly struggling with a knock.
The Scot looked despondent on the bench, and as favourite to start at 15 for the Tests, it could potentially be a big blow for the Lions.
However, at half-time Lions assistant coach John Dalziel said he was taken off as a precaution.
After the game, head coach Andy Farrell gave another positive update.
He said: "I was just speaking to him there.
"I think somebody landed on his knee, and he felt a little bit of something.
"He's walking around etc, so hopefully it's not too serious."
