Kiss's Winning Run Ends as Argentina Hold Australia to Draw

  • On Saturday, the Wallabies secured a historic series win against Argentina in Mendoza, though a 28-28 draw prevented a series sweep.
  • Australia established an early 14-0 lead after 28 minutes through tries from Captain Harry Wilson and Winger Max Jorgensen, but the lead evaporated before halftime as Argentina fought back.
  • During the second half, Flanker Fraser McReight reclaimed the lead for the visitors, only for Captain Pablo Matera to score his second try in the 64th minute, putting Argentina ahead 28-21.
  • With 10 minutes remaining, Argentina lost center Lucio Cinti and Fullback Santiago Carreras to yellow cards for deliberate knock-ons, conceding a penalty try that leveled the match at 28-28.
  • Head coach Les Kiss remains unbeaten after four matches, though he said the team "let them off the hook a couple of times," as the Wallabies' four-match winning streak ended.
