The Lions fought back in a tense United Rugby Championship match against Munster at Ellis Park in Johannesburg to record a 23-21 victory.
The Lions trailed the Irish side 21-10 at halftime.
The win marked their second in a row in the competition.
The Irishmen scored three first-half tries but the hosts fought back in the second half, denying the visitors a single point, while they scored a try and more two penalty goals to edge to the victory in the dying minutes.
