WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) The British and Irish Lions leveled the three-test series against New Zealand with a 24-21 win in the second test Saturday after the All Blacks played 65 minutes with 14 men following a red card for center Sonny Bill Williams for a reckless shoulder charge.
Owen Farrell kicked the winning penalty with four minutes remaining to send the teams to Eden Park in Auckland next weekend with the series level at 1-1.
Williams earned a place of permanent notoriety in New Zealand’s rugby history when he was shown a red card by French referee Jerome Garces in the 25th minute for a no-arms tackle on Lions winger Anthony Watson.
