in the second minute of the game new zealand winger bryan williams kicked the ball over the head of phil bennett, who ran back to pick it up near his goal line. with nearly the entire length of the field between him and the new zealand goal line, bennett started upfield by sidestepping and evading three tackles, in turn passing the ball to jpr williams, who managed to offload the ball after bryan williams had tackled him around the neck. still deep in the barbarians' end of the field, the ball then passed through four pairs of barbarian hands (pullin, dawes, david and quinnell) heading upfield before edwards, slipping between two team-mates and seemingly intercepting the last pass, finished with a diving try in the left-hand corner, 22 seconds after bennett picked up the ball.
