RWC Week 3: Argentina v Samoa

[Dodge]

I’ll be watching this with interest, expect Argentina to win, can’t believe they could be as bad as they were against us. Worried about Samoa against England and curious to see how they attack the Argies

[mariner4life]

these two teams have had some classic World Cup games. Lets hope, for the tournament's sake, we get another

[Stargazer]

Yuck, yellow card within the first minute for the Samoan fullback. Hopefully it won't be upgraded.

[African Monkey]

So dumb from Paia'aua.

[stodders]

@Stargazer Red worthy?

[African Monkey]

@stodders Wouldn't suprise me. Very dumb from him.

Stuck on a bus heading to Lyon

Any and all updates gratefully accepted

[Stargazer]

@stodders Hmm, nowadays I don't know anymore. It depends on how dangerous they consider his landing. I think he landed on his upper back, not his head/neck?

[Stargazer]

First try goes to Argentina. Bofelli stretches his arm out, but was it double movement?

It seems to have been given. He converts his own try.

7 - 0 Argies

[Stargazer]

The yellow card stays yellow.

[Stargazer]

Samoa back to 15 players now.

[African Monkey]

Very willing out there. Both sides very physical in contact.

[Stargazer]

That was a great turnover from Samoa. And then it was almost like they didn't know what to do with that sudden possession.

[African Monkey]

Paia'aua is having a shocker so far.

[Stargazer]

Samoa going for a kick at goal. Leali'ifano misses.

[Stargazer]

Another turnover Samoa. They're going for a line-out now.

[Stargazer]

And again. Now Argies throw.

[Stargazer]

Samoa 12 penalised for being offside. Argies go for the kick at goal.

Bofelli's kick is good.

10 - 0 Argies

[Stargazer]

Argies penalised for jumping across in the line-out. Samoa opt for a kick at goal as well.

Leali'ifano slots the 3-pointer, via the post.

10 - 3 Argies

[African Monkey]

The early Argentina try could end up being a winning score in this weather and with Samoa's non existant attack.
