Another Rugby World Cup match with England, another loss. Nothing seems to go right for Argentina when they meet.
“Pretty much everything that could go wrong did go wrong,” Argentina coach Michael Cheika said.
England won the first World Cup matchup against Argentina in 1995 in Durban in a similar way. Rob Andrew kicked six penalties and two drop goals to cancel Argentina’s two tries. The Pumas were thought to be better armed this time. They beat England at Twickenham last November, beat Australia in Sydney in July and ran South Africa close home and away. Cheika said before Saturday’s game the team was “pretty impatient to get going.” Nine of the starting 15 had World Cup experience.
