Backline shines as Argentina beat U.S. to go out with a bang

Argentina's backline cut loose for the first time at the Rugby World Cup as the Pumas closed a disappointing Pool C campaign with a 47-17 bonus point victory over the United States at Kumagaya Rugby Stadium on Wednesday.

Match Commentary

82'		A great afternoon in Kumagaya sees the Pumas finish 47-17 winners over the USA. There are however plenty of green shoots in this Eagles team and you get the feeling they are only going to get better in the coming years. #ARGvUSA #RWC2019 pic.twitter.com/75rZytMIwr — Sam Bruce (@Sambruce86) October 9, 2019
82'		The conversion sails wide to bring an end to this one. A thoroughly enjoyable contest which the Pumas have won 47-17! Thanks for your company and remember to stay across ESPN for all your Rugby World Cup coverage.
81'		And they get it! Try time USA! The skip[per Blaine Scully has got himself a double as a lovely cut-out pass sails into his arms and he eases into the corner. Replacement Will Hooley threw the pass but there was a strong charge again from Lasike in the lead-up as well as a darting run from Nate Augsurger.
