Friday 20 October 2023 Written by: Mark Smith

Newcastle Falcons wing Mateo Carreras started for Argentina on Friday as they lost their Rugby World Cup semi-final against New Zealand.

Los Pumas were defeated 44-6 in Paris, with club-mates Eduardo Bello and Matias Moroni coming on from the bench.

Argentina’s tournament is not over, however, as they will remain in France for the third-place play-off.

That game takes place on Friday at 8pm UK time and will be shown live on ITV 1.
