Queensland Reds 12 Lions 22: player ratings Manu Tuilagi Forced off after only 20 minutes with a stinger to his right shoulder and given the Lions lack of possession in first quarter had few opportunities to impress 6/10 An impressive display by the Wales centre. Worked tirelessly in defence during the Reds" purple patches and always got across the gain line, also showing some deft touches. Tommy Bowe Looked hugely impressive in the first half, with one blistering counter-attack almost creating a try for Cuthbert before he came off with a broken bone in his hand. Will be a major loss to the Test team. Owen Farrell Picked up where Halfpenny left off by kicking six kicks out of six to keep twist the knife and made a number of breaks and only denied a try when ball was knocked out of his hand as he reached for the line. Ben Youngs Stepped up to the mark on his first start on the tour. His running threat from the base was key to taking the game back to the Reds. Box-kicked accurately and his aggressive defence resulted in a deserved try. Mako Vunipola His stock continues to rise on this tour. Helped destroy the Reds scrum and was a huge physical presence in the loose, both in terms of carrying and at defensive counter rucks 7/10 Tom Youngs The line-out throwing was accurate and his bowling ball physicality helped give the Lions front-foot ball which proved vital when the conditions deteriorated to keep the Reds pinned back in their half 7/10 Matt Stevens Selected for his footballing skills and defence around the fringes and didn't disappoint. Got on top at scrum time and worked hard to support carriers. His versatility could yet win his a place in the Test squad 6/10 Geoff Parling Another who rose to the occasion on his first start. Stole an early Reds" line-out to give the Lions breathing space and played key role in disrupting their line-out. Pushing hard for place in Test squad 7/10 Richie Gray Appeared to take a while to get into the contest but his pace gave the Lions momentum around the fringes and was able to cross the gain line to good effect and was solid in the line-out. Big step up from his debut against the Barbarians. Looks more match sharp and was one of the key men in attempting to cut the Reds off at source, with some heavyweight counter-rucking 6/10 Almost scored on his Lions debut from North's stunning break and critically was not rattled by the Reds when they dominated possession. Physical at breakdown and will be better for the hit out. Not as influential as he was against the Barbarians and made the odd handling error in the deteriorating conditions but his work rate could not be faulted. Richard Hibbard Happy to do the hard yards at the coal face when the conditions got worse and did not take a backward step 6/10 Got through a lot of defensive breakdown work when the Reds pushed hard in the final quarter claw themselves back into the game 6/10 Paul O'Connell Gatland turned to him to steady the ship when the game was still in the balance during the second half and his experience was key and provided a rally point for the Lions. Booked his place in the Test side with a stunning display, taking the attacking game to the Reds and using his pace and power and balancing running to isolate defenders. A game changing display 9/10 Jonathan Sexton Had to come on for fire fighting role in an injury disrupted backline and played his part in late defensive rearguard action. Lions will hope his tight hamstring is nothing serious. Dan Cole Coped admirably with the switch to loose head and he won a crucial turnover on the Lions line when they were scrambling to clear their lines at the death. Not on long enough to make a significant impact.
