Week two of the autumn internationals, and England arrived

:00:07.:00:10.

back at Twickenham with much to ponder after their opening day

:00:11.:00:12.

victory against Australia. Next up on this sodden stage, the

:00:13.:00:28.

Pumas arrive on the back of six straight losing defeats, but has

:00:29.:00:31.

England know only too well, they can't half pack a punch. -- has

:00:32.:00:34.

England. Welcome to Twickenham, and after a

:00:35.:01:29.

wet morning, the sun is daring to come out for this second autumn

:01:30.:01:37.

Test. Lewis Moody alongside me to enjoy what should be a return for

:01:38.:01:42.

England. The crowd demanded a bit of that. A bit

:01:43.:01:45.

England. The crowd demanded a bit of something special. I think we all

:01:46.:01:47.

do. The England something special. I think we all

:01:48.:01:50.

rather despondent about their performance last week so it is good

:01:51.:01:54.

to hear that honesty coming out of the cap. But England really want to

:01:55.:01:59.

play a great style of rock you. They want to play wide and expansive

:02:00.:02:03.

Hopefully they will be able to do that because it is drying up. But

:02:04.:02:07.

Argentina are historically a very tough side to play. Yes. A whole new

:02:08.:02:14.

front row for England today and that is the area Stuart Lancaster has

:02:15.:02:18.

rung most changes. A combination of thinking, partly protecting players,

:02:19.:02:31.

partly getting players out. Youngs has had a baby, so he is having a

:02:32.:02:36.

break. The front row is very important. That front row, to get on

:02:37.:02:43.

top of the likes of Ayerza in Argentina, they have got a job, and

:02:44.:02:46.

they will have a much easier platform if they can get up today

:02:47.:02:52.

with that centre bearing we need to see. So much questioning over this

:02:53.:03:04.

week. A big chance. Yes. A great chance for Billy. Stuart put his

:03:05.:03:11.

faith in Billy and Joel, and they are out there today, but we need a

:03:12.:03:17.

performance from them today. Let's join our two Andrews in commentary.

:03:18.:03:24.

This test for England, which still has to be passed and passed well.

:03:25.:03:31.

Stuart Lancaster's grand plan is yet to be realised. Everybody expects

:03:32.:03:36.

great things from the men on the field. Compared to the Wallabies

:03:37.:03:41.

last week, it will be a very different type of challenge for

:03:42.:03:45.

England today. England will face the challenge with an all-new front row.

:03:46.:03:56.

Dylan Hartley comes in. David Wilson. Ben Foden gets a chance on

:03:57.:04:09.

the left wing. Daniel Hourcade, his first game in charge, and he is

:04:10.:04:15.

without a trio of players. They are injured. Fernandez also missing from

:04:16.:04:22.

the back line. Juan Martin Hernandez. On the bench, great

:04:23.:04:28.

strength for England, especially up front with Youngs. Two Newcastle

:04:29.:04:37.

players among those waiting for Argentina.

:04:38.:04:46.

The referee gets us under way, England trying to make it two out of

:04:47.:04:56.

two. Safely into touch through the smoky air from the fireworks. And

:04:57.:05:02.

Andy Robinson alongside me. People suggesting there is a danger that

:05:03.:05:05.

this will be straightforward for England because it will be a weaker

:05:06.:05:09.

Argentina than we are used to seeing, but a dangerous game? Very

:05:10.:05:15.

dangerous. It is important England play with some temper, though. The

:05:16.:05:20.

line-out works well for Argentina there. We know it's going to be a

:05:21.:05:32.

bruising affair. A bit crowded but Argentina do well to keep it alive,

:05:33.:05:37.

keep it in hand. And move it through.

:05:38.:05:47.

smartly. -- at there. But Argentina do well. Kicks it well and

:05:48.:06:01.

accurately. Into touch and Argentina, if not the ball, will at

:06:02.:06:06.

least have the first decent position of the match. This is what the

:06:07.:06:11.

championship has done for Argentina. You see they start to move the ball

:06:12.:06:15.

and testing defence. But a really good start from the England defence.

:06:16.:06:20.

Really good tackles and pushing Argentina backwards. Argentina

:06:21.:06:28.

challenge the England line-out but Dixon spots a bit of space. --

:06:29.:06:37.

Dickson. Not much room so he hacks it on. You can see perhaps the early

:06:38.:06:48.

intent from England. And up it goes. Nobody there for England. Came

:06:49.:06:51.

forward and off the Argentinian hands, so Brown able to gather. But

:06:52.:06:57.

Argentina turn it over again. A long and perhaps misguided kick to

:06:58.:07:08.

the man of the match last week against Australia. Not the best

:07:09.:07:13.

chase on his kick and taken by his opposite number, Amorosino.

:07:14.:07:22.

The scrum-half just pointing the way and he asks his forwards to come in.

:07:23.:07:28.

Have a little kick and go. And back it comes to Sanchez, and

:07:29.:07:52.

Brown waiting again, busy in the early exchanges. And that buzz turns

:07:53.:07:58.

to a groan as he is hit hard. The kick doesn't quite find touch.

:07:59.:08:19.

And the metro wing, Imhoff, five it down the touching line. Tom Wood was

:08:20.:08:37.

on hand and then Dickson. The ball has been alive a long time.

:08:38.:08:57.

England building phase after phase. And the standstill used his heft

:08:58.:09:13.

there. Wide again. Good work by Tom Wood and the first penalty goes to

:09:14.:09:18.

England. Argentina going off their feet and it should be a proper

:09:19.:09:23.

goal. That was a really good start by England. Everybody has had a

:09:24.:09:27.

touch in the game, playing with some tempo, making two passes, as you can

:09:28.:09:37.

see here, Wood taking the ball. Good intent to keep two passes going and

:09:38.:09:41.

that is important for England in this game. Also great to see England

:09:42.:09:45.

running the ball from their own line and getting Chris Ashton early into

:09:46.:09:46.

Straight and true and threw it goes. the game.

:09:47.:09:59.

Straight and true and threw it goes. And England have the first point.

:10:00.:10:05.

And England will be pleased with those first five minutes. Against

:10:06.:10:10.

good Argentinian tackling, they have been able to move the ball against

:10:11.:10:13.

the yard, so a good start. Into Argentinian hands. Good

:10:14.:10:23.

attacking position for them now The ball went backwards, says the

:10:24.:10:35.

referee. Muttering about offside. But back

:10:36.:10:55.

they come for an Argentinian penalty. Straight from the

:10:56.:10:59.

successful kick of the penalty given away by England. Frustration for all

:11:00.:11:06.

coaches. You want to clear your area and your territory and to get a

:11:07.:11:10.

charge down. Great chase put in by Imhoff. Argentina really have got an

:11:11.:11:19.

easy three points here. Sanchez is a very useful kicker. A lady swipe of

:11:20.:11:25.

the boot and that brings Argentina level. -- lazy.

:11:26.:11:35.

Much more of a contest now at the scrum. England do well enough there.

:11:36.:11:48.

Ben Foden does have the pace, and into Mike Brown. Good work by Ben

:11:49.:12:11.

Foden and Brown, linking well. Advantage to England and penalty

:12:12.:12:13.

coming if they want it, but they might want to make more of this

:12:14.:12:18.

opportunity. Ball went loose, so back they come for that penalty You

:12:19.:12:25.

saw two men there who have been competing for the England fullback

:12:26.:12:35.

Joseph and linking well. -- jersey. Yes, they did. They are going to go

:12:36.:12:44.

for the line-out here and push the England defence. Here we are. Eight

:12:45.:12:57.

metres also out. The last line-out was stolen.

:12:58.:13:03.

England going with a six plus one line-out. A decanter the last.

:13:04.:13:18.

Argentina not contesting this one. England tried to get that drive

:13:19.:13:20.

going, the crowd were willing them on. A bit of confusion and division

:13:21.:13:28.

created within the Argentina defence. Here is the drive. Five

:13:29.:13:36.

meters away. They know they have that penalty. Still advantage.

:13:37.:13:44.

Trying to smuggle it onto Dylan Hartley from Lawes. Closer, closer

:13:45.:13:51.

still! The line is beckoning! The ball down but not quite there. Yes!

:13:52.:13:55.

still! The line is beckoning! The So say some of the England players.

:13:56.:14:01.

They would! What a very good ball. Put the pressure on the Argentine

:14:02.:14:05.

defence, trying to put England on the floor, but England were able to

:14:06.:14:11.

stay up on their feet. Happy enough not to have a look at that. Going

:14:12.:14:18.

back for that long advantage, that penalty. So, again, Owen Farrell

:14:19.:14:22.

straight into touch and the crowd like to see this. An important time

:14:23.:14:28.

for England to score. As you can see, the bind is very good. Does he

:14:29.:14:34.

get over the line? Looks like it is just short. So they will try it

:14:35.:14:44.

again. Once more, England driving again. Setting themselves. It seems

:14:45.:14:48.

inevitable, with the crowd at their back, that they will get to the

:14:49.:14:53.

line. Can they get the ball down? Argentina splintering. A penalty,

:14:54.:15:00.

but the try is scored. The first try of the match for England. Well done,

:15:01.:15:10.

England. It was incredibly hard The Argentinian defence was very good,

:15:11.:15:14.

but England remained on their feet, got people in front of the ball and

:15:15.:15:17.

it was well deserved. You can see, England keeping their

:15:18.:15:27.

chests for word, moving forward getting past that wall, and that is

:15:28.:15:35.

really hard work. It takes a lot to score in International Rugby Board

:15:36.:15:38.

are particularly against Argentina. A moment for

:15:39.:15:39.

are particularly against Argentina. A him to remember, his first try for

:15:40.:15:47.

England. Ten points for England Playing a side like Argentina, they

:15:48.:15:52.

are not a great chasing team. It will give them

:15:53.:15:57.

are not a great chasing team. It get the scoreboard moving,

:15:58.:15:57.

are not a great chasing team. It points ahead, then their heads will

:15:58.:16:04.

go down. Stuart Lancaster said he wants England to rise up the

:16:05.:16:07.

rankings. They are third at the moment, he believes they can

:16:08.:16:11.

overhaul South Africa. A victory here, then something good against

:16:12.:16:16.

New Zealand, they might be able to do that. That is a good scrum. Very

:16:17.:16:21.

good. England really dominated Argentina back in the summer. Today,

:16:22.:16:28.

they have got their full front row playing. The togetherness of that

:16:29.:16:34.

pack, being driven over the line, it was important they made a statement.

:16:35.:16:39.

Working together. Great height of the Argentina pack. 48 metres, on a

:16:40.:16:51.

rather cool, damp November day. You could hear the sound of that. What a

:16:52.:16:56.

strike. It sailed through with room to spare. Marcelo Bosch get them

:16:57.:17:01.

back in. The restart taken safely enough

:17:02.:17:19.

Tomas Cubelli just delayed. It might work well for England.

:17:20.:17:28.

England on the attack again. Good possession, good charge. Not held.

:17:29.:17:36.

Makes another new yards up to the outskirts.

:17:37.:17:47.

Moving it at pace, England. Moving out wide. Mike Brown shimmies

:17:48.:17:59.

infield. Carried on by Chris Robshaw. England are making headway.

:18:00.:18:12.

It comes infield. England pouring forward. Billy Twelvetrees felled,

:18:13.:18:27.

still with England. Space out wide. Lovely pass. Infield, can he get

:18:28.:18:35.

there? He is held up. He thought he was scoring, but good defensive work

:18:36.:18:44.

by Argentina. Very good defensive work, but impressive play by

:18:45.:18:49.

England. They are able to play off the second receivers, moving the

:18:50.:18:55.

ball, Billy Twelvetrees dropping in. Some really good accuracy in their

:18:56.:19:00.

passing, very impressive. Midway through the half, four points in it

:19:01.:19:06.

for England, what a position here. They are scrum, just held by Billy

:19:07.:19:16.

Vunipola. It is still there, and Billy Twelvetrees get the try. The

:19:17.:19:24.

second for England today. He saw the line. He used that strength. He

:19:25.:19:32.

really excel rated into the. -- accelerated. Three tries for

:19:33.:19:43.

England, and why go wide when you can do this? You could see the

:19:44.:19:48.

Argentina defence drifting off looking for the channels. Billy

:19:49.:19:53.

Twelvetrees squares up, tries his legs, and shows him how to finish. A

:19:54.:20:04.

real talent, Billy Twelvetrees. Owen Farrell converts. England's leaders

:20:05.:20:13.

handsome again. Well worth the result. Courtney Lawes takes

:20:14.:20:20.

differing them. Here is Billy Vunipola.

:20:21.:20:31.

England attacking with pace, and vigour, and verve.

:20:32.:20:46.

Owen Farrell puts it to Billy Twelvetrees.

:20:47.:20:55.

Dylan Hartley is on the charge. Joe Marler. This is a confident England

:20:56.:21:06.

at the moment. Trying to move it on quickly.

:21:07.:21:14.

Argentina try to turn it over and they have it. The intent was good

:21:15.:21:20.

from England. Really good intent. The defenders spotted the player at

:21:21.:21:28.

the back and got good line speed. Better for Owen Farrell to pass

:21:29.:21:29.

that. Argentina playing much of the game

:21:30.:21:50.

between their own ten metre line and the 22.

:21:51.:21:58.

This is hard , hard work for Argentina.

:21:59.:22:15.

The leap and gather, and England will come again. Argentina pour

:22:16.:22:27.

through. A penalty for England. Argentina straying offside. A great

:22:28.:22:39.

passage of play, but Argentina are playing inside their own half and

:22:40.:22:42.

have been forced to because of England's defence. They do not want

:22:43.:22:47.

to give the ball away because England have been counterattacking

:22:48.:22:50.

very well. Round has looked a devastating every time he has got

:22:51.:23:00.

the ball. -- Mike Brown. That is very useful from Owen Farrell, takes

:23:01.:23:07.

the player all the way up. That takes some real nerve and skill to

:23:08.:23:11.

be able to do that. He could easily have put that kick on the 22, but he

:23:12.:23:16.

has gone for the five metre line. Argentina losing an experienced

:23:17.:23:24.

player, and on comes Santiago Cordero, making his debut. Usually a

:23:25.:23:37.

full-back. That is a big loss. Do England have some quality finishing

:23:38.:23:37.

here? Argentina going for that defensive

:23:38.:23:43.

drive. Still there for England. Little chip

:23:44.:24:23.

forward from Mike Brown. Argentina gather it.

:24:24.:24:33.

England are playing with pace, as much as anything. Lee Dixon is at

:24:34.:24:45.

the heart of that. We need to give Argentina some credit for the way

:24:46.:24:48.

they have defended. England have been playing well and getting the

:24:49.:24:52.

passes in but Argentina have been tackling strongly.

:24:53.:25:15.

The referee looking for a temple in this game. He does not want any

:25:16.:25:19.

stops. -- tempo. England line-out. Dylan Hartley is scrabbling his way

:25:20.:25:48.

to the try line. Just a metre or so from the third England try. Surely

:25:49.:25:55.

it will come now? There it is. Gets it down this time. The try

:25:56.:26:04.

it will come now? There it is. Gets given, the celebrations begin. The

:26:05.:26:06.

move past 20 points. This is a very impressive display from the men in

:26:07.:26:12.

white. Lots of really good work down the front. Dylan Hartley carrying

:26:13.:26:16.

grapefruit speed, great Lake drive, really close to the line. Billy

:26:17.:26:23.

Vunipola adding his legs as well. This will mean a lot to Chris

:26:24.:26:27.

Ashton. He has had some critics A great finisher who has had a drought

:26:28.:26:34.

of late. Great carrying, first from Wilson, Hartley picked up as well.

:26:35.:26:44.

Argentina overcommit, attacking up the wing where Sebastien Cordero has

:26:45.:26:49.

come in. I would like to see that one again, because as he slid, I was

:26:50.:26:55.

looking at where his food was. - Santiago Cordero. Not down yet, not

:26:56.:27:02.

down yet... Would be worth looking at that again. I think his feet were

:27:03.:27:13.

over the line but still in the air. Conversion for Owen Farrell, who has

:27:14.:27:15.

his kicking boots with him today. A bright game for Lee Dixon. Such

:27:16.:27:28.

competition at scrum-half for England. He is the man in

:27:29.:27:32.

possession. Playing well. coming to them, as Eusebio Guinazu

:27:33.:28:16.

does his bit. It is a speculative kick.

:28:17.:28:22.

The England back row are doing a lot of unseen work, putting pressure on

:28:23.:28:33.

the have backs, forcing them to kick truly.

:28:34.:28:45.

Marcelo Bosch is going to try to add another three points.

:28:46.:28:56.

Has the distance, but just drifting wide. 2.5 minutes to go, unhappy

:28:57.:29:05.

Pumas. They have had some difficult times

:29:06.:29:16.

in the rugby matches, getting close to Australia, but some big defeats

:29:17.:29:23.

as well. This might be another. Here is a chance. They have an overlap,

:29:24.:29:32.

the ball could not quite go there. If they could get a try before

:29:33.:29:36.

half-time, something to take into the second half...

:29:37.:29:51.

Sanchez gliding through! The reason he was gliding through is it was the

:29:52.:30:01.

crossing that gave him the space. That was a really good attack by

:30:02.:30:06.

Argentina. They have put England under some

:30:07.:30:08.

Argentina. They have put England chase. The captain leading from

:30:09.:30:18.

example. And he moves off-line, Leguizamon. The referee picks it up.

:30:19.:30:24.

I'm sure if he had stayed still the referee would have allowed it to

:30:25.:30:30.

continue. So, towards the final seconds of this half.

:30:31.:30:39.

Just a fraction too far. Still Argentina's ball. They might just

:30:40.:30:52.

want to get this out of play and go and read group. -- and re-group The

:30:53.:31:07.

ball is out, the clock is red. Sanchez is stricken. But it is

:31:08.:31:11.

half-time and a very, very impressive first half here at

:31:12.:31:14.

Twickenham from England. All going well so far for England. Three

:31:15.:31:24.

tries. England have made one change for the second half.

:31:25.:31:33.

18 points to the good as they kick-off. England under way.

:31:34.:31:38.

Argentina have a response. England have shown they are full of

:31:39.:31:58.

confidence. A little bit laboured by Argentina

:31:59.:32:17.

and getting England's defence up very, very smartly. Argentina back

:32:18.:32:21.

inside their own half once again, trying to find a way through. The

:32:22.:32:27.

long pass might just do it. Argentina with a little scissors.

:32:28.:32:33.

But the ball goes out. But it's going to be an Argentinian ball

:32:34.:32:38.

came off and England hand. Good passing movement. Very dangerous

:32:39.:32:47.

runner, he was. Perhaps the first real decent attacking position for

:32:48.:32:51.

Argentina. Just once they visited the England 22 and they are trying

:32:52.:32:55.

to march their way there now. Doing well. Good driving, rolling ball.

:32:56.:33:05.

And a penalty coming. For Argentina. So, Sanchez just send it up. And as

:33:06.:33:14.

it comes down into England hands they will come back for that

:33:15.:33:21.

penalty. The Argentina forwards seem very comfortable with this game at

:33:22.:33:24.

the moment. Not just with the scrum but also with their mauling play. I

:33:25.:33:28.

have been impressed with the way they have stayed in the game. So,

:33:29.:33:32.

Nicolas Sanchez... It is good and Argentina have at

:33:33.:33:50.

least another three points up there. David Beckham. I don't know that I'd

:33:51.:33:57.

seen him at a ruck a match before. -- at a rugby match. A smile. There

:33:58.:34:04.

Advantage to England as well. Under we are. A royal wave! He

:34:05.:34:24.

Advantage to England as well. Under pressure, good pressure, from the

:34:25.:34:32.

Argentinian defence. Nothing coming of that so back they come for the

:34:33.:34:34.

penalty. Using the correct option at the

:34:35.:34:46.

front of the line-out, and Argentina giving the soft penalty away, which

:34:47.:34:53.

gives a field position for them to launch another strike attack from

:34:54.:34:54.

their line-out. So there's the position for England.

:34:55.:35:06.

This time they are ambling forward at a leisurely pace.

:35:07.:35:16.

Can England find the same success here as they did in the first half?

:35:17.:35:32.

Strange to see such a physical specimen, still just 20. Goes

:35:33.:35:41.

wide... The transfer Argentina doesn't quite pop-up into the hands

:35:42.:35:47.

of the Argentinian player. But Bosch gets it away. And a good chase

:35:48.:35:52.

coming in on Farrell. Argentina made some good ground

:35:53.:36:05.

there. They really improve their defence, putting England to the

:36:06.:36:13.

fore. Slightly disappointed with the way England played

:36:14.:36:14.

fore. Slightly disappointed with the poor accuracy of the past. A change

:36:15.:36:25.

by Argentina. For the second half. Argentina with the ball now.

:36:26.:36:43.

Just having a more comfortable time, Argentina, in this second-half. Tom

:36:44.:36:51.

Wood has gone offside. They can fling this about with gay abandon!

:36:52.:36:57.

The referee says that when forward so they will come back for that

:36:58.:37:02.

penalty. Argentina have had a bit more field position in the second

:37:03.:37:06.

half. If they can keep as ashen as they did in the first half, the

:37:07.:37:10.

possession they have been keeping has been in England's half. In this

:37:11.:37:12.

half. He is already running back. Happy

:37:13.:37:32.

with that one. Three from three Just 12 points behind now. Which,

:37:33.:37:38.

perhaps given England's dominant in the first half, is not what they

:37:39.:37:42.

were looking for at this stage. They would have liked to click on. -

:37:43.:37:52.

kick on. England with the drive and the

:37:53.:37:59.

advantage there. And back they all come. The man in

:38:00.:38:30.

that row, Manuel Carizza. Feeling the pressure now. Farrell, who was

:38:31.:38:35.

kicking to the corner, he has now decided to kick for goal. Farrell

:38:36.:38:43.

missed a true of early kicks against Australia last week. Not an easy

:38:44.:38:49.

one. But a good side at least for a right foot. Give it the stair!

:38:50.:38:58.

It is not pretty. Not quite there. Might have made it but Argentina

:38:59.:39:10.

were spared. And the kick taken in by Ashton. He builds up a head of

:39:11.:39:13.

steam and takes the tackle. That's a good pick-up. And England

:39:14.:39:31.

still with it. Living rather dangerously.

:39:32.:39:44.

The ball comes back to Argentina, and just a few more mistakes

:39:45.:39:49.

creeping into England's game in this second-half. Sanchez had to take

:39:50.:39:57.

that deep. Kicked down the throat of Ashton. And taking on his man.

:39:58.:40:07.

England, their play always looked adventurous in the first half but

:40:08.:40:11.

now looks a little bit risky. Farrell sees the space... Finds the

:40:12.:40:38.

space and finds the touch. A really good kick by Owen Farrell, behind

:40:39.:40:41.

the ball very quickly, finding the space. The England team really

:40:42.:40:46.

needed that. It is important they now put the pressure on the

:40:47.:40:56.

Argentina line-out. So, once again, deep inside their own half for

:40:57.:40:57.

Argentina. Fine, said the referee there.

:40:58.:41:11.

Argentina still with it. England just being made to work a little bit

:41:12.:41:14.

harder after the break. Santiago Fernandez was stopped

:41:15.:41:24.

quickly in midfield. The defences up to the task the

:41:25.:41:51.

moment. See if there is any more space out wide. The captain tries to

:41:52.:42:02.

get it in field over to Cabello All of this work has been inside their

:42:03.:42:09.

own half. Trying to soften up the England defence. A tackle with 4

:42:10.:42:14.

He is a good touch finder. But some

:42:15.:42:26.

He is a good touch finder. But couldn't quite breakdown the England

:42:27.:42:33.

defence. You see the hits going in between the front row, Wilson and

:42:34.:42:37.

Hartley. A really good carry through there by Sanchez. Argentina haven't

:42:38.:42:45.

yet found the key to unlock the England defence.

:42:46.:42:53.

Space out wide there Argentina but couldn't quite get it there. Lots of

:42:54.:42:59.

possession for Argentina but the territory is not theirs and England

:43:00.:43:05.

have the penalty. As they get tired bodies, I can just see the players

:43:06.:43:10.

dropping in. A cheap penalty to give away. A tackle contest. And, again,

:43:11.:43:15.

showing how good the England offences. They have been very

:43:16.:43:23.

physical. -- the England defence is. So a chance now for England to

:43:24.:43:29.

get themselves into a good position. That is a wonderful kick.

:43:30.:43:39.

England with this attacking line-out.

:43:40.:43:44.

The crowd willing them on again The ball goes loose...

:43:45.:44:02.

They just pause for a moment to look at the referee... But a penalty to

:44:03.:44:09.

Argentina and England's attack fizzles out. England haven't gone

:44:10.:44:16.

through two phases in this half If you think of the multiphase play in

:44:17.:44:20.

the first half, they haven't been able to do it this half because they

:44:21.:44:25.

have been inaccurate. Poor passing but also poor support to the

:44:26.:44:30.

ball-carrier. Argentina couldn't quite find that so England get a

:44:31.:44:43.

chance again. Mike Brown, fullback! Gives it to Tomkins. From that

:44:44.:44:44.

famous Rugby League family. England have a penalty as well, a

:44:45.:45:09.

great opportunity. Big decision for the captain. Is he going to go for

:45:10.:45:15.

goal or are they going to kick to the corner? Argentina's defence has

:45:16.:45:19.

become a lot better. Now kicking for the corner. Has that gone the wrong

:45:20.:45:24.

side of the flag? It has. This is just order line frustration.

:45:25.:45:41.

-- building the frustration. The 22 restart for Argentina. They still

:45:42.:45:43.

have a chance but they need the ball. They have it now.

:45:44.:46:07.

Just a few murderers around -- murmurs around the crowd. This is

:46:08.:46:18.

not insurmountable, 12 points. murmurs around the crowd. This is

:46:19.:46:23.

Pressure on the line-out. Argentina have the ball and they will have

:46:24.:46:24.

their chance. Gonzalo Tiesi is off with that

:46:25.:46:46.

injury. Another improvised line up for Argentina, that is how close

:46:47.:46:50.

they are to the line. If they could get a try now, it would be a nervous

:46:51.:46:53.

final ten minutes. The players are looking at what is

:46:54.:47:03.

available. Spilled off the hands. Just on the pitch, Benjamin Macome.

:47:04.:47:24.

This time Argentina play the short one. Some nice passing. Could not

:47:25.:47:29.

take it through. Maybe break but the ball wasn't with them. Went

:47:30.:47:30.

backwards. Still the pumas have it. Advantage to Argentina, penalty to

:47:31.:47:38.

Argentina. Nice little trick playing to the

:47:39.:47:54.

front. Getting away, but luckily England were able to get the ball

:47:55.:48:01.

out of his hands. Without that, he would have been through. This has to

:48:02.:48:07.

go through from Marcelo Bosch full. That was up one. I think that might

:48:08.:48:14.

be the end of Argentina's chants. That was up one. I think that might

:48:15.:48:26.

chance. Or even contest, get the penalty. We are into the final four

:48:27.:48:35.

minutes of this match. Great work by the England pack. The new front Row

:48:36.:48:40.

has made a real difference to the England scrum. This is really

:48:41.:48:44.

stopped Argentina putting pressure on England in the last 15 minutes.

:48:45.:48:46.

It is been -- has been great work. Alex Corbisiero has done himself no

:48:47.:49:08.

harm coming in for selection for the all Blacks game. England have been

:49:09.:49:14.

able to take the sting out of the game. Argentina making a couple of

:49:15.:49:23.

changes. England with a final chance for

:49:24.:49:44.

something in this second half. Four were they come! Ben Morgan get the

:49:45.:49:51.

touchdown, and England have their try in this half and suddenly they

:49:52.:49:57.

have come to life. What a difference it makes. England attacking the

:49:58.:50:03.

line, being directed against the defence, Ben Morgan working really

:50:04.:50:11.

hard, being really strong. He will be pleased with that.

:50:12.:50:19.

Straightforward, England past 3 points, looks much better on the

:50:20.:50:21.

scoreboard. Second international points, looks much better on the

:50:22.:50:27.

driver Ben Morgan. And relax. Just a minute to play. The victory will be

:50:28.:50:31.

England's. Just seconds remaining at

:50:32.:51:02.

Twickenham. 19 points is the difference. They sing again, they

:51:03.:51:11.

are heading for victory, a victory over the Wallabies and this will be

:51:12.:51:16.

a victory over Argentina, but they still have a little bit of fight

:51:17.:51:23.

left in them. The ball is still alive and it is still Argentina

:51:24.:51:37.

England are putting the pressure on. Not quite. Argentina might take the

:51:38.:51:56.

decision to put this out. Cut their losses. Enough, enough. The referee

:51:57.:52:09.

blows the whistle. A good victory for England, a second-half which

:52:10.:52:12.

came to light towards the end but really the damage was done in the

:52:13.:52:17.

first half. An impressive display, in parts, from England. England s

:52:18.:52:28.

defence has been superb. Victory over

:52:29.:52:36.

Argentina, bring on New Zealand Congratulations, second victory of

:52:37.:52:46.

the series. Does that flatter? Yes, I was pleased with the accuracy and

:52:47.:52:52.

I thought the scoreline reflected it. Other than the last try at the

:52:53.:52:58.

end, we never did that. Credit to Argentina, they did up their game,

:52:59.:53:04.

but we need to be better than that, that is for sure. Man of the match,

:53:05.:53:09.

have you done enough to start next week? I am release apprised, I did

:53:10.:53:20.

not play 80 minutes . -- really surprised. I just contributed to a

:53:21.:53:26.

solid forward performance. It is up in the air. Next week is a one-off.

:53:27.:53:33.

You made some changes in the front row. Has it given you some thoughts

:53:34.:53:37.

about selection next week? I cannot imagine we will see the scenes Rick

:53:38.:53:44.

Stein -- same 15 starting against New Zealand. They did well, but it

:53:45.:53:48.

was nice to have the British Lions front row on the bench. Like I say,

:53:49.:53:55.

the first thing is to assess this game, we will train Monday and

:53:56.:54:03.

Tuesday. On the pitch side, it sounds like the party has started.

:54:04.:54:10.

Behind me, the Argentinian players are warming down. I am joined by

:54:11.:54:16.

Andy Robinson. Talking about the difference in the two halfs. The

:54:17.:54:24.

first one gave us many reasons to cheerful and then there was a real

:54:25.:54:28.

drop-off. The first half, they cheerful and then there was a real

:54:29.:54:32.

their passes together, they were being really direct. The second

:54:33.:54:36.

they were trying to go outside Argentina, could not get phases

:54:37.:54:42.

together, and Argentina improved, defensively, but also their front

:54:43.:54:47.

five took a bit more control of the game. A good game for the foreword.

:54:48.:54:51.

Are there still? Around the midfield? Is enough creativity

:54:52.:54:58.

coming from? -- are there still questions about the midfield? I

:54:59.:55:04.

think so. Against the stray Leah there was supposed to be a lot more

:55:05.:55:07.

play for the third receiver, the distributed well, but I think there

:55:08.:55:15.

is still room to tinker. But he has confidence and it is good to see

:55:16.:55:18.

Billy Twelvetrees have a solid performance. Plenty more rugby

:55:19.:55:21.

coming up from these Autumn Internationals. Next Saturday, we

:55:22.:55:26.

have wheels versus Argentina. Ireland versus Australia. -- Wales.

:55:27.:55:34.

We have the highlights of the England match. On Sunday, Scotland

:55:35.:55:40.

are playing South Africa. You can see that one on BBC One. Talking

:55:41.:55:47.

about England versus New Zealand, it is the highlight of the series. If

:55:48.:55:51.

this is to be seen as a successful series, England need to win, but

:55:52.:55:59.

there are still? -- still questions about England. New Zealand are the

:56:00.:56:03.

best team in the world for a reason. They do what they do well. We had a

:56:04.:56:07.

really solid first-half performance that we could not back up in the

:56:08.:56:11.

second half but Argentina did a really good job of stifling the

:56:12.:56:14.

game. If Chris Robshaw had put the ball in the corner, we would have

:56:15.:56:19.

had more intensity, more going forward, but there is a lot to work

:56:20.:56:24.

on. I want to see some more balls going forward. We played with with.

:56:25.:56:31.

That is nice. But if you do that you need some direction. Whether it is

:56:32.:56:35.

That is nice. But if you do that you Billy Twelvetrees, Joel Tomkins

:56:36.:56:42.

somebody going hard at the line New Zealand's defence will give us that

:56:43.:56:45.

space. There will be time on the ball. What we saw last year was

:56:46.:56:51.

running direct. We will need that from Joel Tomkins and the outside

:56:52.:56:57.

backs. If England can put together the first half of Argentina and the

:56:58.:57:02.

second half of Australia, it will be cracking. But New Zealand will be

:57:03.:57:07.

really upset and they will be coming out and you will see a different New

:57:08.:57:11.

Zealand side. He'd tinkered with his foreword is. -- forwards. Where you

:57:12.:57:21.

see him making the most changes It will be interesting to see what he

:57:22.:57:26.

does. Dylan Hartley's connection was great, but Tom Youngs is really

:57:27.:57:33.

dynamic. The front five is really strong at the moment. That is green

:57:34.:57:38.

to be an interesting choice. Courtney Lawes will come in without

:57:39.:57:44.

doubt. For me, Christian Wade, if he is going to play, it had to be

:57:45.:57:50.

today. You cannot really bring him in for a New Zealand game, the most

:57:51.:57:58.

difficult side in the world, for your first. -- first cap. A solid

:57:59.:58:09.

performance, that is what we want. We will see you next weekend on the

:58:10.:58:12.
