Match Commentary

83'Nic Atkin sums up events at Leceister:

"Job more than done for Argentina today, scoring nine tries in a 64-19 victory with plenty getting a good run out ahead of what should be a thrilling quarterfinal against either Ireland or France.

"The sloppy errors that were pounced on for Namibia's tries could be of some concern, though, while Marcelo Bosch was extremely lucky to only be shown a yellow card for a late tip tackle on Theuns Kotze. Tier Two sides have expressed their frustrations about decisions at this World Cup and Bosch may indeed find himself cited.

"But Argentina's quality told -- the Pumas began to run riot as they carved up the Namibian defence to score four more tries after the restart. An exhausted Namibia, after just four days' rest, duly played their part in a frenetic contest though, looking to burst forward whenever they could even in the dying minutes with 14 men after Tinus du Plessis had received a yellow card. Their efforts were rewarded when Eugene Jantjies took an offload and went over to the delight of the crowd to sign off in style."
82'And what an absolutely fantastic way to finish. On the occasion of his 50th cap, it's Johnny Redelinghuys who is lining up the conversion. You won't witness anything quite like this again! That is a forward's kick, though, but he absolutely loved the moment. It falls short, hits the padding round the post and everybody congratulates him anyway. That was magnificent!
81'Wonderfuly, absolutely superbly, Namibia score a try! What a way to go! Eugene Jantjies is on hand to take an offload and go over. The crowd absolutely loved that, and if there is an award for "Pluck", Namibia have just won it. Superb.
