    In the NZ/Arg highlights, the Akira Ioane try was pretty impressive too!

    I love that Samoan finish. Is it as reliable a way to finish a try as hitting the deck 4-5m out and sliding over? Probably not, but it looked awesome!

    Lucky win from New Zeland! A mistake from the "Pumitas" in the last recieving kick, gave the allblacks the winning post kick. Too sad :'(
