Argentina’s triumphant players react beating the All Blacks for the first time in New Zealand
Argentina beat the All Blacks for the first time in New Zealand to move top of the Rugby Championship.
Winger Emiliano Boffelli kicked 20 points as the Pumas won 25-18 in Christchurch to pile the pressure on All Blacks coach Ian Foster. In Christchurch, the All Blacks had led 15-6 early on thanks to tries from Samisoni Taukei'aho and Caleb Clarke and, after going in at the break 15-12 ahead, Richie Mo'unga's second penalty extended their lead.
But Boffelli's boot kept the Pumas in the game and flanker Juan Martin Gonzalez scored an opportunist second-half try.
