Santiago Carreras landed 23 points with the boot to drive Argentina past Australia 28-26 Saturday as the resilient Pumas hung on to avenge a last-gasp defeat a week ago. "We made it really, really hard for ourselves today," said Australia captain Harry Wilson. Both sides came out swinging in front of a sellout crowd with two tries in the opening seven minutes. Gloucester fly-half Carreras nailed a penalty to put Argentina ahead, but Australia responded immediately with the sheer power of Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii carrying him over for a converted try. With Australia committing too many errors, Carreras landed two more penalties as the Pumas marched to half-time in control with only good defence preventing the Wallabies trailing by more.
