AUCKLAND (Reuters) - The All Blacks will prepare for a greater confrontation at the breakdown as a desperate British and Irish Lions look to level their test series in the second match in Wellington, coach Steve Hansen has said.
Hansen's side surprised many by confronting the Lions up front, running much of their attack close to the ruck and using Sonny Bill Williams and Ryan Crotty as battering rams to secure a 30-15 victory at Eden Park and take a 1-0 lead in the series.
