France vs South Africa LIVE rugby: Latest updates from autumn international

1668277013Last play before half-time and Wales run a few phases in the tight before Anscombe boots it into the stands. The game in the balance but Wales deservedly lead through Faletau’s try.Luke Baker12 November 2022 18:161668276911Tompkins spills the kick-off to give possession straight to Argentina but Gonzalez returns the favour and Williams clears up to halfway.Good contest in the air between Boffelli and Ree-Zammit sees Argentina earn the lineout but an attempted quick lineout to the front is disrupted by Gareth Thomas. Good awareness from the prop and it wins his team a scrum, just inside their own halfLuke Baker12 November 2022 18:151668276784Easy enough for Anscombe and he slots the kick. Wales have dominated the last 10 minutes and deservedly lead.Luke Baker12 November 2022 18:131668276723A rare mistake from Carreras as he boots the kick-off straight out of play to immediately cede possession back to Wales.Huge carry by North sends two defenders backwards! Superb stuff. Argentina then pinged for taking out the man off the ball and Anscombe can extend the lead from the tee.Luke Baker12 November 2022 18:121668276450And there it is! Wales over at last.In the end it’s rather simple. Good execution of the basics to claim lineout ball, they set up the driving maul and it moves inexorably to the line where Taulupe Faletau flops down for the score.Gareth Anscombe adds the conversion and Wales are aheadLuke Baker12 November 2022 18:071668276408Good, strong running from Tompkins gets him over the gain-line and into the Pumas 22. North then sent flying backwards by some great shoot-up defence.Another penalty for Wales as Argentina penalised for offside – third penalty against them. Wales consider going for the posts but it’s to the corner again instead.Luke Baker12 November 2022 18:061668276177This is entertainingly frantic! Better lineout from Owens, finding Tipuric. The noise around the stadium rises as Wales get closer to the line as Rees-Zammit makes some yards before Thomas is inches short.Owens then dives for the line but the ball comes loose and Argentina pick it up before running from in their own in-goal area! They actually have a 3-on-1 overlap but Carreras drops the pass. Back for an Argentina scrum on their own 5-metre line.Bad news for Wales though as Dan Lydiate goes off holding his left wrist. Jac Morgan comes on into the back row.Luke Baker12 November 2022 18:021668275996Poor execution from Wales. The lineout is overthrown and Argentina steal, although Carreras then runs sideways in his own 22. The Pumas scramble a clearance kick but it doesn’t have great distance. Another Wales lineout just outside the 22Luke Baker12 November 2022 17:591668275932The lineout maul gets inches away from the line and things then get frantic as Wales try to spread the ball to the backs and they knock on. Argentina pinged for being offside, so it’s back to the corner for WalesLuke Baker12 November 2022 17:581668275859Nice offload from Tompkins to Rowlands and Wales then run through the phases. Good, disciplined defence from Argentina but the ref brings it back for a penalty from the original scrum.Anscombe kicks towards the corner and the Principality Stadium crowd makes some noise ahead of the 5-metre lineout.Luke Baker12 November 2022 17:57
