Difficult to tell from highlights but it looked like Argentina had just come back from the Black Sea casinos and did just enough to get by
Romania deserved to lose with that kit

@crucial that's a non-story if ever I've read one. "coach tells senior players to remain competitive to keep getting selected"
You say it's a non story but I can think of plenty of players this hasn't applied to as they got on. Most notable of recent times being Kieran Read.

Disagree, being able to drink, play, and party your way around the world is totally different to being stuck in hotels with training and playing the only thing on the agenda
