    Not sure beating them a rugby is going to feel like much consolation

    who is the ex-player co-commentator? I find his voice quite annoying (going up at the end of a comment).

    They are wearing the 1986 world cup final shirt that maradona wore. Colours look slightly off mind

    A bit of googling, I think it is David Flatman - not impressed

    Don’t think I’ve ever seen a game with so many yellows

    Sad, desperate pricks. Put your own clothes on.

    Was CLEARLY in touch but the ref really wanted to give the try despite what the TMO telling him what happened. Objectively, I'm glad the correct decision was finally made.  I'm not normally so concerned about England rugby, but the Argies have been appalling this week and/or I'm mellowing with age!

    So powerful. Mbappe acceleration with the added power

    The ref and the TMO almost having a row was superb. That ref was dying to give that try. At least the Argies took the defeat well.......

    If you lack standards like Argentina do, is that something to be proud about? For me it negates all the positives around them. And there are quite a few of those.

    Their manager has accused England's players of a lack of respect with their celebrations after the game.

    Well done lads and in their backyard too.

    Should've had some Harrier Jump Jets do a flyover afterwards.

    They didn't even unfurl a banner, did they?

    They give it out but don't like a tiny bit back. Come on Spain tonight?

    Rugby fans and players are generally classier than football behaviour wise. So just goes to show being classless assholes is a national trait, not a football one for them.

    I’ve never understood how eye gouging and various other rugby dark arts are considered “classier” just because they are supposedly “posher” than football players/ fans?

    Not everyone does that though, certainly hardly any supporters. Respect for the refs is certainly better and there is more making out you haven't been hurt from a hard tackle when you have been than pretending you have been when you weren't even touched.
