Efficient England reach RWC quarter-finals with 39-10 win over Argentina metro.co.uk
The Pumas were a man down for most of the game.
The first quarter was an entertaining contest, the Pumas playing with their tournament on the line, punctuated by a Jonny May try, but it was a heavy hit to the head of Owen Farrell that changed the game.
Tomas Lavanini was sent off for a clear dangerous tackle and once the extra man started to take its toll, Elliot Daly, Ben Youngs and George Ford profited to secure a try-scoring bonus point that had a little of the shine taken off by Matias Moroni’s late score. However, they would finish on a high as Jack Nowell confirmed his return from injury by shrugging off four defenders to score in the corner and fellow replacement Luke Cowan-Dickie followed a rolling maul over the try-line to complete the route.
