Brazil vs Argentina XV – ARC 2016 Full Match

The Argentina XV claimed the newly minted Americas Rugby Championship title in São José dos Campos on Saturday, defeating Brazil to emerge from the tournament undefeated with an opening round draw against the US Eagles the only blemish on their record. Os Tupis were overwhelmed by the visitors, but could be excused given the enormous amount of energy expended both in the process of their historic win over the Eagles in São Paulo and of course the celebrations. It remains a big step forward for Brazilian rugby and Americas rugby as a whole.
