Another Argentina scrum penalty. Sanchez hits the posts. Still 23-11. Eight minutes to go.

Second Tier rugby on display here

More worrying for Argentina as it’s their 1st team

This is their game though. They know how to ground out a result if they are up at half time.

Sanchez with a kick. 11-26.

Sanchez finally slots a penalty

Wal 11-26 Arg

Isn't this a pretty top-strength Argentina team?

Think Wales have done pretty well considering it's almost a C team

[MiketheSnow]

That’s it
Deserved thrashing
Matera over

Wal 11-33 Arg

[sparky]

Matera smashes over. Kick over. Wales 11 Argentina 33. Argentina building confidence ahead of the Rugby Championship.

If they play like that they’ll get fucking smashed

Wales' next game will be against the All Blacks on 30th October when no doubt there will be a packed house of their fans to see them try to end 68 years of hurt.

Not holding my breath for either happening ☹️

[Rapido]

Now Wales can join NZ in having a bigger losing margin to Argentina in their last match than Romania's effort.

Gotta say I like Luke Pearce as a ref. Communication is good. Temperament to match.

Bruny is a beast

Does almost a C team mean it was a B team? 😛

A few Welsh players in that 23 that would be in the 23 had there not been a Lions tour.

Moriarty got red-carded a year or so ago when choking a quite small Argie in a headlock.

The whole thing was a bit hilarious, but ignoring Ref's instructions to let the poor Argie go was one of the dumbest things I've seen on a rugby pitch and deserved the Red.
