Argentina change one for Cape Town

Santiago Gómez Cora has made one late change to his Pumas 7s lineup for this weekend’s HSBC Sevens Series stop in Cape Town. Renzo Barbier comes in to add muscle up front with Segundo Tuculet instead nominated as the 13th man to participate only in case of injury.

Otherwise the squad is unchanged with captain Gastón Revol looking for improvement after an 11th place finish in Dubai. Fernando Luna is named to his 30th tournament with Germán Schulz to play in his 20th.

Los Pumas are the extremely difficult Pool C along with England, New Zealand, and Canada. All matches will be streamed live by World Rugby.
