Scotland vs Argentina LIVE: Rugby result and reaction as Darcy Graham gets hat-trick in feisty Scottish win

Scotland 52-29 Argentina: Darcy Graham notched a hat-trick in a bizarre game that included six cards and 12 tries

Grant Gilchrist says Scotland could beat 'any team' ahead of Autumn Nations Series

Scotland overcame remarkable Argentina resistance in winning their thrilling year-ending rugby Test 52-29 at Murrayfield.

Argentina were leading 8-7 when flanker Marcos Kremer was sent off with an hour remaining, and played with 12 men for a time in the third quarter.

Incredibly, with 12 on the field and defending a five-metre scrum, the Pumas poached dropped ball and Emiliano Boffelli, playing on his club home ground, ended up scoring between the posts at the other end and converting his try.

The Pumas trailed only 24-22 with nearly half an hour to go but it was too long to hold out. Scotland added four more tries and wing Darcy Graham got a hat-trick in their highest score against Argentina.

England 0-14 New Zealand, 13 minutes

Can England puncture this All Blacks maul defence? It is now schooled by Jason Ryan, whose Crusaders have proved so effective at countering the drive in the last few years.

They cannot! An issue on set-up, with lifters in front of the jumper as he comes to floor and a penalty to New Zealand.

England 0-14 New Zealand, 12 minutes

England come to life for the first time in this contest. Manu Tuilagi and Ellis Genge carry with typical fury, with Jonny May nearly slithering free of Mark Telea, too. Kyle Sinckler twice rumbles with intent.

New Zealand are offside. Penalty to England, and a choice to be made - it’s eminently kickable but 100-capper Owen Farrell will direct his forwards to the corner.

England 0-14 New Zealand, 11 minutes

New Zealand have clearly identified something in the English wing defence, Jack Nowell again targeted with a cross-kick. This time the Exeter wing does rather better, hitting Caleb Clarke as he lands and buffeting him into touch.

TRY! England 0-14 NEW ZEALAND (Codie Taylor try, 9 minutes)

A rumbling black mass and Codie Taylor is over!

Muscular and meaty from New Zealand, driving right through the English maul defence. Scott Barrett barks orders as the periscope at the centre of it, roaring his delight as Codie Taylor just about manages to get the ball down.

Jordie Barrrett thumps his conversion through the uprights from a left-of-centre position - New Zealand’s start gets even better.

[19 November 2022 17:38 · Harry Latham-Coyle]

England 0-7 New Zealand, 8 minutes

Penalty to New Zealand. Kyle Sinckler is ruled to have hinged on the engagement of the first scrum.

The All Blacks go to the corner.

[19 November 2022 17:38 · Harry Latham-Coyle]

England 0-7 New Zealand, 7 minutes

Real signs of danger for England here. Richie Mo’unga lifts a well-judged cross-kick to Caleb Clarke, who takes in comfort and matadors away from Jack Nowell’s bull-like charge, advancing into the England 22.

Marcus Smith makes a firm tackle but New Zealand keep the ball in play, and England knock on.

[19 November 2022 17:36 · Harry Latham-Coyle]

England 0-7 New Zealand, 6 minutes

Rather telegraphed from England, that, and very sharp from Papali’i to read it. He’s been excellent in recent weeks, the openside, and is really now pushing regular skipper Sam Cane for the starting spot.

The All Blacks will feed a scrum after a knock on at the base.

TRY! England 0-7 NEW ZEALAND (Dalton Papali’i try, 4 minutes)

Intercepted and Dalton Papali’i will canter away!

A gift from England. Their lineout throw is long, over the 15-metre line, permitting New Zealand’s defence to advance. Papali’i rushes up to snatch Jack van Poortvliet’s pass out of the air, puts his foot down and gets New Zealand off to an excellent start with a slide beneath the posts.

England 0-0 New Zealand, 3 minutes

An exasperated sigh from the home fans as Jack van Poortvliet launches a relatively aimless box kick after England had won turnover ball inside the New Zealand half. Jordie Barrett collects and claims a mark.

[19 November 2022 17:32 · Harry Latham-Coyle]

England 0-0 New Zealand, 2 minutes

Scott Barrett at the tail is the target of Codie Taylor’s first lineout throw, the ball not clean but Dalton Papali’i able to clear up.

Fast pla from New Zealand, with both centres to the fore. Rieko Ioane carries off Jordie Barrett’s pass and then the youngs Barrett makes a half-break.

England regather, though, and force a knock on, allowing Marcus Smith to hook a clearance long.
