    'Ref! Look alive'

    Argentina are putting together some possession for the first time in an age.

    Cadan Murley has a fine moustache, let it be known. Can he or anyone be a hero now?

    Argentina have just about seen out the sin bin period. This is a scrum right down by the try line though...

    England score! But no!

    Brilliant from Freddie Steward down the left, he finds replacement Cadan Murley but when he passes inside to Jack van Poortvliet there's a knock-on before he can touch down.

    That was close!

    Guy Pepper breaks through...no! What a last-ditch tap tackle. Stops him in his stride.

    England are looking tired in the pack, understandably so. George Ford needs more from his forwards but they're being straggled about all over the field.

    Jack van Poortvliet is on at scrum-half. England have a man advantage.

    England playing it all in the Pumas half this half. Got to turn this into points now and a fantastic series win awaits....

    This is classic England rugby, big strong heavy forwards dominating the opposition… but being useless at scoring tries

    About time the ref did something about the indiscipline, I’ve never seen so many fouls before a card!

    The crowd are UP. Can Argentina see this out? They will be a man light for half of the remaining game.

  11. Sin-bin - Pablo Materapublished at 59 mins

    Argentina 17-17 England

    Argentina are down to 14! Veteran Pablo Matera just lies across the ball with England a few metres out and kills the play. He's in the bin for 10 minutes.

    Curtis Langdon charges out of the maul and England look like scoring for a moment but Freddie Steward is wrapped up - there's then another penalty to England.

    Guy Pepper is on for England as George Ford kicks another penalty for a knock on into the corner. Curtis Langdon is secure with the ball and finds the England pack.

    England do realise they have to hold onto the ball if they’re going to score a try right? So many handling errors, it’s so frustrating!

    Brilliant from England at the breakdown after another good George Ford kick ahead. Can they find a way through?

    Half an hour left, the finishers off the bench could have a say in this one yet.

    Scores level! The Argentina penalty count keeps on rising and when they gift one bang in front the England number 10 laces through the posts.

    Argentina 17-14 England

    England's kick chase has been excellent all night but Santiago Carreras does brilliantly to nip one inside under heavy pressure. No scores since the break but plenty to keep an eye on.

    Theo Dan is now hurt and limps away - on comes #getinvolved favourite Curtis Langdon at hooker.

    A minute of bedlam. Charged down kicks, knock-ons, turnovers, jacklas and steals, it's all a bit hectic but it's fun!

    Argentina survive.
