Lions crush Reds 54-12 in Brisbane, showcasing dominance and raising hopes for upcoming Tests against Australia.

The British and Irish Lions delivered a rugby masterclass at Suncorp Stadium, overwhelming the Queensland Reds with a resounding 54-12 victory. After a competitive first half that ended 21-12, the Lions unleashed a second-half blitz, scoring 31 unanswered points that left the Reds reeling.

Maro Itoje, making his debut as Lions captain in Australia, was a force to be reckoned with, leading his team with authority and skill. His commanding presence was complemented by standout performances from Elliot Daly, Bundee Aki, and the man of the match, Jac Morgan. The half-back pairing of Jamison Gibson-Park and Finn Russell orchestrated the attack beautifully, with Russell and Fin Smith ensuring the game flowed seamlessly in the latter stages.

However, the match was marred by concern for Elliot Daly, who suffered a forearm injury late in the game and was sent for an X-ray, leaving the field heavily strapped and iced. The strong attendance at Suncorp reflected the excitement surrounding the Lions` tour, which continues with matches against the NSW Waratahs on July 5 and the ACT Brumbies on July 9. The Lions are gearing up for a three-Test series against Australia starting July 19, raising expectations for a thrilling showdown.
