Argentina take a well deserved 16-3 lead over New Zealand into halftime. The sides traded early penalties before Argentina crossed for the first try around the midpoint of the half to lead 10-3. Argentina continued to control the tempo as they kept the scoreboard ticking over, slotting a further two penalties with the All Blacks failing to find their rhythm.
