CAPE TOWN : Flanker Courtney Lawes has called for one final push from the British & Irish Lions to secure a momentous series win against world champions South Africa and urged the team to express themselves at the Cape Town Stadium on Saturday.

It has been the strangest of Lions tours, with no crowds and the players cooped up in their bio-secure hotels, but it comes to an end with a final 80 minutes and a chance for either side to claim victory. "It means a great deal to us, we have to go out there and express ourselves and show that. It would be a massive achievement to win a tour in South Africa."

"There are very legal ways in rugby to be physical, we showed that in the first half but in the second we got it wrong. We are looking to correct our mistakes. The discipline is a massive part of that.
