Lions lose first warm-up match since 1971

The British and Irish Lions first warm-up for their rugby union tour of Australia ended in a 28-24 defeat to Argentina in Dublin.

They hadn't lost an opening match before that since 1971.

Their first game in Australia is against Western Force in Perth next Saturday, before the opening Test with the Wallabies on the 19th of July.
