A historic victory
This Saturday was a 48-17 win against the Wallabies at Bicentennial Stadium. It was the seventh win against the Sea And not only a maximum victory against them, but a test against the forces. The biggest was 15 for 83 against the Aussies at 18-3.
The All Blacks have been beaten once (25-15 in Sydney 2020) and South Africa three times (37-25 in Durban 2015, 26-24 in Salta 2016 and 32-19 in Mendoza 2018).
In addition, the win secured top spot in the Rugby Championship for Las Pumas. After two dates, Argentina points, 5 units similar to Australia, but with a higher goal difference in favor, +16 vs -16. If the tournament ends today, the national team will be the champion. Of course there is a long way to go and they are all tight, as South Africa (+4) and New Zealand (-4) are a point away.
Will there be new celebrations in New Zealand?
