England 27-23 Argentina: Max Ojomoh impresses as hosts hold off Pumas comeback

by

Max Ojomoh scored one try and set up a handful of others as England withstood a late Argentina comeback to win 27-23 at Allianz Stadium, Twickenham.

Ojomoh, who wasn’t originally named in the starting line-up but replaced the injured Fraser Dingwall, scored the game’s first try while also providing assists for Immanuel Feyi-Waboso and Henry Slade.

England led 17-3 at half-time only for Argentina to narrow the gap to a single point thanks to a Justo Piccardo try and kicks from Tomas Albornorz and Santi Carreras.

However, in the final quarter, Slade crossed before George Ford added a penalty to stretch England’s lead and secure a 100% winning record this November.

Argentina threatened a late upset after Rodrigo Isgro set up a dramatic finish, only for England to hold on thanks to a late lineout steal.
