Saints star Freeman at the double as Lions cruise to win against Reds
Tommy Freeman scored twice as the British & Irish Lions beat Queensland Reds 52-12 at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane on Wednesday.
Freeman, who started on the wing, grabbed his first scores for the Lions as they cruised to victory in the second game of their tour of Australia.
Alex Mitchell had a big impact from the bench, setting up Freeman’s second try as well as a score for Wales flanker Jac Morgan.
Fin Smith also impressed as a replacement, firing a fantastic pass wide for Garry Ringrose to dot down late on.
Former Saints lock Lukhan Salakaia-Loto started in the second row for the Reds.
The Lions have now won both of their matches on tour, hitting the half-century mark on both occasions.
Next up is a game against the Waratahs in Sydney on Saturday (kick-off 11am BST).
