The Twickenham thriller had it all: a nail-biting finish, controversial calls, and a heated aftermath.
England secured an 11th straight win and a clean sweep in the Autumn Nations Series, but it was a hard-fought battle against a spirited Argentina side. The game was a tale of two halves, with England dominating early on. Man of the match, Max Ojomoh, was the star of the show, setting up a try with a perfect cross-field kick and then releasing Henry Slade for a crucial score. But Argentina, who had staged a remarkable comeback against Scotland last week, weren't going down without a fight. They clawed their way back into the game, with tries from Justo Piccardo and Joaquin Oviedo, only to have the latter ruled out.
But here's where it gets controversial: with seconds ticking away, England's Tom Curry delivered a late hit on Juan Cruz Mallia, sparking fury from the Argentine players and staff. This incident, which left Argentina with 14 men, proved to be a turning point. A last-ditch lineout steal by Ewels sealed the deal for England, but the drama didn't end there. Tempers boiled over after the final whistle, with both teams clashing in a heated exchange.
The thrilling match had fans on the edge of their seats, but the post-match scenes left a sour taste. Was the late hit from Curry a fair play or a foul? And what impact did it have on the game's outcome? These questions will surely spark debate among rugby enthusiasts. So, what's your take? Was it a fair win for England, or did Argentina deserve better?
