Melbourne - Coach Andy Farrell said the British and Irish Lions' 29-26 comeback win over Australia Saturday was "what dreams are made of", saluting his players for the way they fought back.
The tourists looked down and out after slumping 23-5 behind in the first-half at the cavernous Melbourne Cricket Ground.
But they conjured an incredible turnaround with two tries in quick succession before half-time — winger Hugo Keenan's (right) 79th-minute effort sealed the three-Test series and shattered Australian hearts.
"It's fairy tale stuff. To leave with a win like that, it means everything," said Farrell after the nail-biting triumph.
