Ojomo makes all the difference as tempers flare in Pumas clash

MAX OJOMOH provided the spark as England made it 11 wins on the spin - but sparks were flying in the tunnel at the end of a brutal Test match.

Back rowers Tom Curry and Henry Pollock and Puma back row Santiago Grondona and scrumhalf Simon Benitez-Cruz were involved in some argy-bargy at the final whistle as tempers boiled over.

Argentina were fuming they had to finish the game with 14 men after a huge, slightly late, hit from Curry had put fullback Juan Cruz Mallia out of the match with four minutes left and the game in the balance.

The tourists had used all their replacements by then and were left a man down as they pushed for a repeat of their wins here in 2006 and 2022, but England held out.

Curry, sent off in a World Cup clash against the Pumas in 2023, escaped a card and Argentina head coach Felipe Contepomi ran down from the box to have his say.
