Dan Sheehan, Sam Prendergast and Rónan Kelleher scored Ireland’s other three tries. Argentina replied with two tries from Mateo Carreras. Sky Sports reporting and Rugbyrama’s scorecard agree on that tally.

Ireland already led 21-5 at half-time. Their six tries also secured the attacking bonus point.

The Pumas had opened the scoring through Carreras. They later played short-handed following yellow cards for Justo Piccardo and Efraín Elías, both sanctions recorded in the match accounts.
