The offloading from NZ is unreal.

Embarrassing from Argentina

Hard to see this game still being alive by half time.

It’s hard to give a van Damme about this rugby match.

Ref isn’t as strict on NZ holding onto Argies on the edge of rucks

New Zealand sloppy enough

That looked a legit rip tackle

Gardner got himself into a poor position there

Pity, 7 points were there for Argentina there arguably.

The ref seems unsure of himself

How was advantage over there?

Argentina’s three World Cup semi-final appearances have had a neat symmetry.

They’re always at tournaments in Europe, they always beat a Celtic team in the quarter-final and then lose by a large margin to one of the Southern Hemisphere big three.

2007: beat Scotland, lost to South Africa
2015: beat Ireland, lost to Australia
2023: beat Wales, lose to New Zealand

Game over now. Pity.

In fairness it’s amusing how the draw worked out here.

New Zealand scoring another try with the last play was extremely predictable.

Ireland missed a huge opportunity here.
