Memorable Americas Tries – Agustín Ormaechea vs Fiji 2015

Uruguay’s third match of RWC 2015 was against Fiji. Four years prior to their famous upset win in Kamaishi, Japan, Los Teros faced the same team in Milton Keynes, UK.

The score involved touches from Rodrigo Silva, Gastón Mieres, Carlos Arboleya and Agustín Ormaechea. Silva pounced on to a loose pass to kick forward and chase. Mieres would regather the ball six meters out before passing off the deck to Arboleya. Silva then gained a meter before quick play had Ormaechea picking up and darting around the corner to score.
