Half-Time Report: Argentina score five first-half tries to take commanding lead over Namibia

By , Reporter |
Argentina score five first-half tries to lead Namibia 36-7 at half time in Pool C in the Rugby World Cup.

Argentina have so far shown their vast superiority to punish Namibia and lead 36-7 at half time in Pool C in the Rugby World Cup.

The Argentinians stormed out the blocks early and although Santiago Gonzalez Iglesias missed a penalty opportunity, it made no difference after Matias Moroni burst down the wing before passing inside to Juan Martin Hernandez to cross.

Things got worse for Namibia after centre JC Greyling was sin binned for a dangerous tackle, with Gonzalez Iglesias kicking the resulting penalty.

Johan Tromp got the Africans on the scoreboard after capitalising on a spilt Argentinian ball to kick through and dive on the ball, but Moroni hit back after bursting through some poor Namibian defence to crash over for his first try for his country.

Horacio Agulla and Pablo Matera added further tries, before Lucas Noguera picked up a loose ball to crash over from short range on the stroke of half time.
