Welcome to live coverage of the Wallabies’ second Rugby Championship Test against Argentina in San Juan!
The Wallabies have hit back after Argentina made a fast start in San Juan.
Dave Rennie’s side conceded a try after just 60 seconds as Jordan Petaia passes a ball too hot to handle for his back three teammate Tom Wright and the home side ran away to score.
Argentina had a second after just six minutes to leave the Wallabies shell-shocked. But the stunned Wallabies rallied, finally getting their hands on the ball after some Fraser McReight brilliance at the breakdown won the visitors some ball.
From a lineout soon after Rob Valetini charged over the gain line and captain James Slipper hit back to score.
Three points from the kicking tee saw the Wallabies close to within four points.
