New Zealand vs Argentina LIVE: Rugby Championship result as Pumas score famous win over All Blacks

After two misses from the tee, the first points of the night for Richie Mo’unga.

A threatening period of attack from New Zealand, switching direction regularly and asking probing questions of the Argentina defence. Richie Mo’unga jinks between two would-be tacklers, with Caleb Clarke injecting his muscular athleticism off his wing. Then the approach is a more direct one, mixing up the carrier archetype with forwards and backwards off the shoulder of Aaron Smith. Ardie Savea pulsates free of another tackle, and a penalty comes for New Zealand.

Richie Mo’unga will go for goal.

New Zealand win a penalty at the scrum and attempt to attack from just outside the Argentina 22. A long throw from Samisoni Taukei’aho requires the full reach of a retreating Shannon Frizell at the tail, but the slight lineout misfire means New Zealand are short of intent and energy as they attack. Argentina force a holding on penalty.

What a tackle from Matias Alemanno! Extraordinary pursuit from the long-limbed lock, seemingly beaten to the outside by a counter-attacking Richie Mo’unga, but throwing out the lasso to snag the fly-half’s shorts and prevent him sprinting away.

Mo’unga can’t combine with Caleb Clarke, who over-runs the offload and leaves the tackled player isolated. Santiago Carreras nicks the ball, and looks to find space with a threaded dab on the angle. Emiliano Boffelli somehow hurls the bouncing ball back into play but can’t quite find his fly-half.

Argentina are controlling the flow nicely, again kicking into space after New Zealand stall their attack. The All Blacks lineout works effectively, and the maul gets moving again, though without the sort of purpose or drive as for the score earlier.

That’s another excellent kick from Argentina, Jordie Barrett having to hurry to prevent a 50:22.

Sam Whitelock and Matias Alemanno collide in the air and each claim the ball, like two giraffes reaching for the same acacia branch. Their forward colleagues pile on top of them, with referee Nika Amashukeli eventually deciding it will be an Argentina scrum - for somewhat unclear reasons.

The All Blacks are just struggling to settle. Another penalty against them, this time for a high tackle as Ethan de Groot catches a dipping Pablo Matera slightly high.

Emiliano Boffelli puts Argentina back in front.

New Zealand are up quickly to shut down Argentina’s backs having got their maul defence spot on - too quickly, in fact. That’s a third offside penalty inside the first 17 minutes, and referee Nika Amashukeli calls Sam Cane in for a word. The New Zealand captain is duly warned.

Argentina’s captain, meanwhile, has a little too much claret on his shirt - Julian Montoya appears to have a bit of a gash to the side of his head and will go off for some treatment after indicating his desire to kick at goal.

This time New Zealand play away from the maul, Aaron Smith bringing Caleb Clarke into the game on a switch, the dynamic wing well held by the Argentina defensive line. Rieko Ioane is the next chosen carrier, trying to use his fancy feet to shift the point of contract but failing to take secure enough hold of the ball.

Argentina clear and pour forward in good number to win a penalty. Emiliano Boffelli’s right boot goes unused - Santiago Carreras opts instead to kick deep into the New Zealand 22.
