    Ireland now riding their luck big time.

    Argentina have missed out on 11 (likely 13) easy points in the last eight minutes.

    Double whammy for Argentina. Mateo Carreras was injured in that tackle and he is replaced by Facundo Cordero.

    Ireland 17-7 Argentina

    Oh, so close!

    Mateo Carreras decides to go it alone, shaking off green shirts and wriggling between tackles before the ground opens up in front of him.

    He looks set to gallop over the line but it is a sublime tap-tackle from Andrew Porter and the Argentine winger spills the ball narrowly short of the chalk!

    Well, he's leaked another wide of the sticks. That was never on target and Argentina have missed out on a potential six points in the past five minutes...

    Hugo Keenan gathers the loose ball and steps beyond the first defender before running into a Pumas wall. But Ireland give away another sloppy penalty - this one is further out but right in the middle of the pitch. Can Emiliano Boffelli make amends for his earlier miss?

    Howler from Boffelli.

    A real kick in the teeth for Argentina to not have come away with anything there having been inside the 22 for the first time since their third minute try.

    Oh no.

    It looked a certain three points from that range but Emiliano Boffelli hooks it wide.

    Ireland 17-7 Argentina

    Santiago Carreras almost spots a gap in the Ireland line but the Pumas fly-half is hauled down before he can pick up speed.

    Tomás Cubelli then tries a little grubber to the corner, it's too long but Andrew Porter is penalised and Argentina are handed a penalty.

    Andrew Porter, con Joey Carbery (23 mins)

    And the hosts get the try!

    It was great work initially from the backs to set the platform for Ireland, who then capitalise with some ferocious forward pressure between the sticks that Argentina cannot handle.

    Tadhg Beirne makes a great carry and the man who finishes it off is Andrew Porter.

    It's the easiest of conversions for Joey Carbery.

    Ireland 10-7 Argentina

    Great move from Ireland, probably their best of the afternoon from the backs so far as Garry Ringrose and Conor Murray combine at speed down the left before the latter is hauled down by a scrambling Argentine defence.

    Conor Murray can't pick it up from the back of a ruck and instead knocks on. Argentina get the put-in and win the penalty as Ireland collapse the scrum.

    Good Pumas defence and they manage to squeeze Ireland away from the danger zone before winning possession and hoofing down field. That'll ease some pressure.

    Ireland 10-7 Argentina

    Great depth once more in the kick towards the corner for Ireland and they move it quickly off the back of the line-out. The hosts are camped 10 metres from the Argentina line.

    Ireland's forwards are absolutely loving this autumn series. There aren't too many hookers in the game that would pop up on the wing to such good effect as Ronan Kelleher did there.

    Josh van der Flier, con Joey Carbery (11 mins)

    Ireland make a line-out in the corner count and Josh van der Flier crashes over from the back of a rolling maul.

    Argentina had no chance once that gathered momentum, driven initially by Ronan Kelleher before Van der Flier takes the glory.

    Joey Carbery pops over the extras.

    Ireland 3-7 Argentina

    Ireland steal the line-out and almost break the Argentina line with Josh van der Flier off the next ball. It's the forwards who make them ground, with Ronan Kelleher popping up on the wing and eventually the Pumas are penalised.

    Joey Carbery (7 mins)

    Chance for Ireland to hit back with the boot immediately after a high tackle by the Pumas.

    Joey Carbery steps up from distance and slots between the sticks.

    What about that offload from Thomas Gallo?! Freed his hands despite the attention of two tacklers. Glorious start for Argentina.

    Mateo Carreras (3 mins)

    How about that!

    Argentina pick the Ireland defence apart at the first time of asking with a slick break to their right.

    The Pumas build an overlap but Mateo Carreras still has work to do, cutting inside and leaving green shirts in his wake before sprinting over the line to touch down.

    Superb start for the visiting side.

    Neat hands from Ireland early on but Garry Ringrose cannot gather and the ball bobbles out of his grasp.
