Felipe Contepomi has unveiled the Argentinian starting XV who will challenge Ireland this Friday at the Aviva Stadium from 9:10 p.m. For this meeting, the Pumas coach has decided to make three changes in his team compared to the big victory against Italy, notably with the return of its vice-captain Pablo Matera.
It’s a return that will do the Pumas good. Third row Pablo Matera is in the starting XV announced by Felipe Contepomi to challenge Ireland this Friday. Suspended during the Rugby Championship, the former Stade français player was not present in the first group announced by his coach. After the big victory against Italy, the Argentine coach made three changes to the starters, including Matera who replaced Grondona. Bordelais Guido Petti replaces young Molina in the second row. In the center, Matias Moroni took Orlando's place. On the bench, Julian Montoya's teammates recorded a new reinforcement with the presence of fly-half Santiago Carreras.
