Historical.
For the first time in its history, Argentina won in New Zealand (18-25), Saturday in Christchurch, for the 3rd day of the Rugby Championship, inflicting on the All Blacks their 6th defeat in eight games.
The Pumas, who exploited the indiscipline of New Zealanders in full doubt, notably won thanks to 20 points from their striker, Emiliano Boffelli.
Full-time in Ōtautahi.

Two weeks after recovering their colors by going to win in South Africa (23-35), New Zealand have again plunged back into their land, after suffering the terrible Irish tour which had earned them two defeats at home. a little over a month ago.
However, the match had started perfectly for New Zealanders who already led 15-3 shortly after the half hour mark. But the rest was punctuated by far too many individual errors on the part of the Blacks to hope to obtain better than a loss.
With too many personal initiatives, the Neo-Z came up against a solid Argentine defense which left them with nothing.
The revenge comes very quickly since the Pumas will find the men in black on Saturday August 3, still in New Zealand.
