The French will not have been in the last four, the English are on the third step of the podium. The XV de la Rose barely beat Argentina in the “small final” of the Rugby World Cup, this Friday, October 27 evening in Saint-Denis. The English won by three small points, with a score of 23-26.

The confrontation had nothing to do with the group match between the two teams. England, although numerically inferior, had largely dominated the Pumas (27-10). This Friday evening, the teammates of the restless Santiago Carreras, author of an essay, held out against their opponents.

Moreover, at half-time, nothing was done because the Argentines and English were within six points (10-16). Very dominant, the XV de la Rose seemed to have mastered the first act before a try from Cubelli just before the break put the Pumas back in the game. But at the final whistle, it was the British players who raised their arms.
