    England now concede a penalty at the breakdown, it's relentless from both sides. Argentina play on but we come back to the earlier call. It was Kyle Sinckler who didn't roll away.

    Owen Farrell

    England lead again. Argentina can't deal with a wave of pressure without an infringement and it gives Owen Farrell a tough chance from wide left, one he bangs over with minimal fuss.

    The lead changing hands with regularity. If the game is the same as this in nine months' tie at the World Cup there will be plenty of hearts in mouths going into the last 15 minutes...

    AP: JvP showing more attacking intent in 30seconds than Youngs had in 55minutes. With Quirke and Mitchell also in good form, why does Jones persist?

    England 23-24 Argentina

    Excellent second half after that rather stodgy, soggy first 40. England moving the ball much nicer now.

    England 23-24 Argentina

    Santiago Carreras dropped the ball, Jack Nowell looked high in his tackle but Carreras was down low and the TMO says there's no case to answer.

    Jack van Poortvliet had been on the field for exactly 29 seconds when he went over, by the way.

    You'd do well to score a try quicker than that off the bench in a rugby international. Big hit from the restart by Jack Nowell and that's got temperatures rising.

    Jack van Poortvliet (con Farrell)

    Well that's what you call an impact! He's been on the field, what, 25 seconds? Jack van Poortvliet picks the ball up and snipes through a gap to hare under the posts and despite being tackled by two men he has the momentum to get over the line.

    Owen Farrell kicks the conversion with ease.

    England have won each of their last 10 Test matches against Argentina, having not lost to the Pumas since a 24-22 defeat in Salta in June 2009. Not a good start to the second half from the hosts as England send on scrum-half Jack van Poortvliet for Ben Youngs.

    Well now.

    England are in a hole.

    The crowd, who has been a little indifferent, have got a plotline to get their teeth into...

    The decibels have crept north.
