Ivan van Rooyen has tipped his hat to his players following their Challenge Cup victory against French side Lyon after what he called a challenging week.
The Lions, needing to win the game at Ellis Park on Saturday to stay alive in the competition, after they had lost their first two games, beat Lyon 42-33 in an 11-try thriller.
With only minutes remaining on the clock the Lions led narrowly 35-33, but sealed the game with a sixth team try, by replacement hooker Morn Brandon.
