Argentina notches biggest win over Wales

In a historic rugby showdown at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, Argentina delivered a commanding performance, defeating Wales 52-28 on Sunday. This victory marked Argentina’s highest score and largest margin against Wales in their rugby history. The Pumas showcased their prowess with seven tries, including two from rookie flyhalf Gerónimo Prisciantelli, who was named man of the match. Santiago Carreras also impressed, converting all eight of his kicks. Wales, despite ending an 18-test losing streak in July, struggled to maintain momentum. Captain Jac Morgan suffered a suspected dislocated shoulder while scoring a try, adding to Wales’ woes. The team conceded soft tries, missed 30 tackles, and received two yellow cards, allowing Argentina to capitalize with 17 points during their absence. Argentina’s dominance was evident from the start, with early tries from Pedro Delgado and Prisciantelli. Wales briefly rallied, but indiscipline and defensive lapses cost them dearly. Argentina’s Simón Benítez Cruz and Mateo Carreras scored spectacular 80-meter tries within two minutes, further extending their lead. Bautista Delguy added another try, while Prisciantelli and Santiago Grondona sealed the victory with late scores. Argentina now looks ahead to their next match against Scotland, while Wales faces a challenging autumn series against Japan, New Zealand, and South Africa.
