WAL 17-29 ARG: Wales reaction (head coach Gatland, captain Morgan)
- 839
ON-FIELD REACTION
Warren Gatland, head coach:
On how his side let things slip:
"We started reasonably well and got to 10-0 but gave away a couple of penalties. Argentina were tough and stayed in the fight and you have got to give them credit and congratulate them. They hung in there. We probably weren't at our best but we were up against a good side who took their chances.
"They defended well. I thought they were a bit out on their feet before half-time but a couple of penalties allowed them back into the game. That for me was a bit disappointing, those couple of soft penalties. But I am not going to take anything away from Argentina. When Rio Dyer made the break, if we had scored there we probably win the game. But congratulations to them."
Jac Morgan, captain:
On what went wrong in the second half:
"We knew they were going to be a physical team, they always are. We just had to front up against that. But discipline and a couple of errors let us down. We let them into our half and they capitalised on that. We let them have more possession and they got points out of it.
"It is a devastating result."
