Argentina notches biggest win over Wales

By Canadian Press on November 9, 2025.

CARDIFF, Wales (AP) — Argentina racked up its highest score and biggest margin against Wales after winning their rugby test 52-28 under the Principality Stadium roof on Sunday.

The Pumas notched seven tries, including a pair for rookie man-of-the-match flyhalf Gerónimo Prisciantelli, and Santiago Carreras was eight for eight off the tee.

Wales showed some positives in its first match since ending an 18-test losing streak in July — the longest in men’s tier one history — with four well-taken tries and the exciting return of Louis Rees-Zammit from his NFL tryout.

But outstanding captain Jac Morgan suffered an apparent left shoulder injury while scoring a try and the new era under new coach Steve Tandy still looked like the old era.

Wales conceded soft tries and cheap penalties and its discipline was poor with yellow cards to backs Ben Thomas and Tomos Williams. While they were off the field Argentina scored 17 points.
