After struggling at the start of the series with a daunting 4-0 lead held by the Kiwis, many spectators feared that the competition was more or less over. But as they say, every dog has its day, and Day 4 proved to be a glorious awakening for Britannia, who entered the day determined to shift the momentum. Amid the crisp air of Barcelona, the Brits showed they can indeed be a thorn in the side of the defending champions.
