Baa-Baas see off 14-man Samoa

Published on August 29, 2015 | Leave a response

The Barbarians scored five tries to beat Samoa 27-24 at London's Olympic Stadium.

The Samoans had to play for an hour with 14 men after lock Kane Thompson was red-carded for punching Saia Fainga’a, who was obstructing him.

With the score 17-17 at the break, the Baa-Baas made the most of their one-man advantage in the second half.

Adam Thomson and Ben Tapuai both scored their second tries, with former Bok flank Jacques Potgieter having a hand in the latter's.

The Baa-Baas defence then kept Samoa out in the dying stages to secure the win.

Barbarians – Tries: Adam Thompson (2), Liam Gill, Ben Tapuai (2). Conversion: Christian Leali'ifano.
Samoa – Tries: Anthony Perenise, Ken Pisi, Jack Lam. Conversions: Tusi Pisi (2), Tim Nanai-Williams. Penalty: Tusi Pisi.
