2nd Half ON!
Mistake by Luke McLean not taking the mark kick, Pumas attacking scrum
Italy penalty, rucking very well… will they go for goal?
No, touch it is, was on halfway.. so maybe a bit far
Another Italy penalty…. TMO to check
Looks like an unfortunate tip-tackle… should only be a penalty
Only a penalty it is… this one is a shot at goal
Yip, right decision just the penalty.
No man, missed left again
Italy do all the hard yards, then a senseless kick… eish
Pumas still leading by 1 point. This match is going to go down to the wire it seems.
Slowing the ball down, not rolling out by Italy, Pumas shot at goal
Pumas 13 / 9 Italy
And the Pumas lead increases to 4.
Come on Italy!
Italy have just missed too many kicks at goal…
Yip, Italy penalty, holding on… scrum Italy, 6m out
Parrisse preferring to go for the quick tap instead of the kick to posts.
TMO called in… seems to be against Leguizamon
We’ll just have the scrum… much of a muchness
Nothing to see here, please move on!
Foeza Italia!
Italy scrum penalty…. drill it into the corner, please!
They do… 5m Italy lineout.
Come on get a try now!
Another Italy penalty, 5m out… corner again
And Italy goes for touch but go nowhere with the resultant drive. Lets try again…
20 Minutes to go in the match
Yellow for No 1 Pumas… side entry
Another penalty and a card for the Pumas:
Try Italy??
