As of May 2009, Johnny Sexton was the little-known backup fly-half for Leinster, the chronically underachieving Irish province. But when Felipe Contepomi went down with an injury early in the Heineken Cup semi-final against a dominant Munster team, Sexton came on, nailed a tricky penalty, and helped Leinster to a crushing victory. Four years and three Heineken Cups later, Sexton is by some distance the leading fly-half in the northern hemisphere. 'Becoming a Lion' is an intimate portrait of life at the highest levels of the professional game.
