  1. Replacementspublished at 21:41 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ireland 22-19 Argentina

    Here comes Sam Prendergast for his first, and I suspsect not his last, Ireland cap.

    The 21-year-old is tipped for a big future, and he's on for Jack Crowley, and this is a huge ask to see this one out with 18 minutes left.

    Jamie Osborne is also on for Henshaw, while Ryan Baird replaces James Ryan.

    The fine margins at this level.

    Robbie Henshaw jumps to gather a kick outside the Argentina 22, but it just slips through his fingers.

    So close to perfection.

    Albornoz kicks is straight to James Lowe, and he brings it into contact midway through the half.

    Can Ireland build something from here?

    Now Ireland are looking to build some much-needed momentum here as they go through the gears.

    Jack Crowley dinks it through and it's into touch in the 22, as Joe McCarthy returns to the pitch.

    The knock-on from Argentina saves Ireland but there is some brutal defending from Argentina there.

    Hugo Keenan makes some hard yards through the middle but it's kicked straight into the hands of Juan Cruz Mallia, who sends it into touch.

    There's less than one minute left of Joe McCarthy's time in the bin, and Ireland have missed the extra man badly.

    Argentina look to build but Garry Ringrose clatters Bautista Delguy out wide, and the wing knocks it on.

    No, as Ronan Kelleher's throw evades everyone and Argentina gather.

    After claiming a good mark in his own 22, Albornoz scuffs his clearance and now Ireland have the throw midway through the Argentina half.

    Can they flip the momentum?

  11. Postpublished at 21:33 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ireland 22-19 Argentina

    To highlight Argentina's superiority in the second half, they've had 73% possession in the last 10 minutes.

  12. MISSED DROP GOALpublished at 21:33 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ireland 22-19 Argentina

    That's the first mistake Tomas Albornoz has made all game.

    He's in a great position and not under a lot of pressure, but he sticks it wide.

  13. Postpublished at 21:32 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ireland 22-19 Argentina

    James Ryan stops Argentine momentum with a huge hit. That was badly-needed!

    They look to reset and go again!

  14. Postpublished at 21:31 Greenwich Mean Time

    Albornoz kicks it into touch just outside the 22.

    Thomas Clarkson is on for part II of his debut, by the way.

  15. Postpublished at 21:31 Greenwich Mean Time

    It's another advantage for Argentina as Jack Crowley just catches his opposite number Albornoz in the air.

    It was marginal, but it was a touch early.

  16. Postpublished at 21:30 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ireland 22-19 Argentina

    Ireland still lead but you wouldn't think it.

    Mack Hansen is the next to make a big error as he throws a pass straight out of play.

    It's all going Argentina's way at the moment.

    The referee is not making idle threats as he had warned Caelen Doris that the next penalty meant a yellow.

    Ireland need to be very careful that ths game dos not slip away with him.

    The ever-reliable boot of Albornoz brings Argentina to within three points.

    Hmmm, this was already getting pretty uncomfortable for Ireland.

    McCarthy being banished to the sin-bin will not help matters.

    This is starting to feel All Blacks-esque.

  20. Sin-binpublished at 21:27 Greenwich Mean Time

    Ireland 22-16 Argentina

    Joe McCarthy is going to the bin here for straying offside.

    Caelan Doris had been warned at the end of the first half and that has carried through.

    Ireland look all at sea here. They need to steady the ship - and quickly.

    Andy Farrell had his head in his hands after that one, and Albornoz points to the posts.
