‘We beat them twice and we know how to do it’: Pumas ready for ABs

After beating the All Blacks twice in three years, Argentina are full of confidence ahead of their highly anticipated Rugby Championship opener in Mendoza this weekend.

Los Pumas believe they “know how” to beat the All Blacks.

Argentina shocked the rugby world on neutral ground in 2020 when they defeated the New Zealanders for the first-time ever in Sydney.

While that famous result will echo throughout time as a landmark moment for both Argentine and South American rugby, the Pumas outdid themselves a couple of years later.

The All Blacks were a shadow of their former selves during a slow start to their international campaign last year.

Defeats to Ireland and South Africa saw the All Blacks slump to an uncharacteristically poor run of form.

But there was hope – or so the New Zealand rugby public thought.

Back in front of their home fans in Christchurch, the All Blacks were expected to beat Argentina, and get their season back on track by doing so.

But Los Pumas had another idea.

Argentina held on for an incredible 25-18 win in the south island – their first win over the All Blacks in New Zealand. History was made, but Los Pumas want more.

“We know what it means to play against New Zealand in Argentina and what team they are, but we are focused on us,” replacement Santiago Grondona told reporters on Friday.

“We had a great week in which we prepared very well and we hope that everything will come out on the pitch tomorrow.

“We trust in our team and the most important thing is that we are united.

“We beat them twice and we know how to do it and it will depend on how we feel tomorrow. Let’s go for another victory.”

While there’s plenty of chatter about this year’s World Cup within the rugby community, both Argentina and New Zealand are taking their seasons one Test at a time.

This rivalry is always played with passion, fury and intent. Both teams are eager to start their 2023 campaigns on a winning note.

The Pumas have never beaten the All Blacks in Argentina, but are clearly ready to rewrite history once again as they prepare to host their southern hemisphere rivals on Saturday (local time).

“Without a doubt, it is the goal we have: to beat the All Blacks in Argentina for the first time in history,” he added.

“The motivation is there and we will see what happens tomorrow.”

Speaking with reporters at Marista Rugby Club in the south of Mendoza after the All Blacks’ captains run on Friday afternoon, Sam Cane said this Test will be a “battle of collisions.”

Cane expects the battle between the forward packs to play a major role on Saturday, and Grondona has predicted a similar challenge.

“I think that rugby matches are always won with the forwards, and the difference will be that we prevail there.

“It will be a tough battle tomorrow.”

Los Pumas will take on the All Blacks in Mendoza at 7.10 am on Sunday morning (New Zealand time).

Don't get out over your skis on the Highlanders

My university days were a whirlwind of excitement and unforgettable experiences, a time when I not only forged lifelong friendships but also met my ex-girlfriend. Our relationship blossomed over three years, during which she introduced me to the fascinating world of cryptocurrency trading. What began as a mere curiosity quickly evolved into a fervent passion, and to my surprise, I discovered I had a knack for it. I started with an initial investment of $5,500 in Bitcoin, a decision that would prove to be incredibly fortuitous as the cryptocurrency market surged. Through careful trading strategies and reinvesting my profits, I managed to amass a fortune that peaked at an impressive $310,000.The joy of my financial success was overshadowed by the unraveling of my relationship. The betrayal came when I discovered her infidelity, a painful revelation that shattered my trust. Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse, she crossed a line I never anticipated. In a shocking act of betrayal, she hacked into my email account, which was crucial for managing my cryptocurrency investments. Fortunately, I had the foresight not to store my wallet passwords there, but the situation escalated when she made off with my phone, which granted her access to several of my accounts. A wave of panic washed over me as I grasped the full extent of the damage she could inflict.Confused,I turned to my network of crypto-savvy friends on Instagram, hoping for guidance. It was during this frantic search for help that multiple people recommended GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES , a service renowned for its expertise in navigating such crises.
