Johnno v Jonah

Emirates Airline London Sevens 4th/5th June 2005

On 4 June 2005, Martin Johnson and Jonah Lomu will meet head to head at Twickenham Stadium for what will be Martin Johnson CBE, legendary Leicester Tigers and ex England Captain's, last competitive game of rugby.

Widely acknowledged as one of the greatest sporting leaders of all time, Johnno has won just about every honour going - including leading his country to World Cup victory in 2003.

Jonah the youngest ever All Black and a legendary winger, will embark on what is being talked about as one of the biggest sporting comebacks of all time. It will be his first international game after almost three years having been sidelined by a serious kidney disease which he's battled for more than a decade.

The Johnno v Jonah testimonial match will see Jonah lead out a southern hemisphere team taking on a northern hemisphere team led by Johnno. Each side will field some of the biggest names in rugby, with players from around the world keen to acknowledge the contribution each player has made to the game.
