The Lions produced their biggest Test comeback after being 17 points down.
Hugo Keenan's last-gasp try gave them a 29-26 win, overcoming a seriously improved Wallabies side.
Didn't have any outstanding moments, but scrummaged very well and made an whopping 16 tackles in just 54 minutes.
Another excellent performance from a man who is in the conversation for player of the tour.
Most importantly, the lineout was on point.
The man is getting nearer and nearer to his best.
It bodes well for Ireland.
A captain's performance.
Made a few crucial turnovers and won a deserved Player of the Match.
Far from his best.
James Ryan was an upgrade on 54 minutes.
He was the Lions' best player last week, and backed it up with another strong showing.
A big moments player.
Finished his crucial first-half try brilliantly.
Made the most tackles of anyone on the pitch with 24.
His highlight was his assist for Curry's try.
Another man who is in the conversation for player of the tour.
Decision making and execution was at its usual best.
Produced some of his worst kicks out of hand and off the tee.
However, his kicks down the line and were crucial.
Saw very little ball, but was good when it came to him.
Showed incredible courage to stay on at the end despite clearly suffering from cramp.
Finished his try brilliantly.
Maybe the defining moment of the game.
Like Lowe, did well when the ball came out to him.
It is underappreciated just how easy he makes fullback play look.
Scored an iconic Lions try.
