BRISBANE AFP: Argentina scored their first win over Australia on Australian soil in 35 years when they downed the Wallabies 23-19 on Queensland’s Gold Coast on Saturday. After leading Australia 17-14 at the break, the Pumas held off a spirited comeback from the Wallabies to record a famous win. The Wallabies scored three tries to two but were undone by their poor discipline, with Nicholas Sanchez and Emiliano Boffelli kicking three penalties between them. It was Argentina’s first win over the Wallabies in Australia since 1983 and consigned the Wallabies to their fifth loss in their last six test matches.
