Argentina v New Zealand RECAP | World Cup

READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our live coverage of the World Cup semifinal between Argentina and New Zealand at Stade de France in Saint-Denis.

The All Blacks put on a ‘dispossession’ masterclass to beat Ireland 28-24 at the same venue last Saturday in the quarterfinal.

Argentina, meanwhile, came back from a 10-point deficit in their quarterfinal against Wales to book a third semi-final place. They previously reached this stage in 2007 and 2015, but they have never gone further – losing to eventual champions South Africa the last time the tournament was held in France, and to losing finalists Australia at Twickenham eight years ago.
