JOHANNESBURG (AP) - Shane Williams scored two tries as the British and Irish Lions avoided a third consecutive defeat by beating South Africa 28-9.
The world champion Springboks win the series 2-1 after victories in Durban and Pretoria, beating the Lions for the first time since 1980.
But Williams and Ugo Monye both crossed the South Africans' line and Stephen Jones kicked 13 points at Ellis Park on Saturday to give the Lions the consolation of equaling their biggest ever win in South Africa and also avoiding an eighth test loss in a row. Morne Steyn kicked the Boks only points with three penalties.
