Rosters Set For Argentina vs South Africa Test #2
Argentina and South Africa are gearing up for their second test of The Rugby Championship.
Whiles the All Blacks and Wallagies await the news of their upcoming third test that has been placed on hold due to Covid protocols, Argentina and South Africa are gearing up for their second test of The Rugby Championship.
The Springboks took the first test 32-12 and will look to double up in the second round as the Los Pumas make some much needed adjustments, which the Boks completely expect.
“Argentina will come hard at us, so we know we need to perform much better than last week to get the desired result,” said coach Jacques Nienaber in a pre test article by Super Rugby.
