Australia came from 13 points down with 20 minutes left to score two late tries and beat Argentina 23-19 in their Rugby Championship match yesterday.

Digby Ioane crossed for Australia’s second try and Berrick Barnes kicked the conversion 10 metres in from the touch line to give the Wallabies the lead for the first time in the match.

Barnes added a late penalty to clinch the match and move Australia into second place ahead of South Africa in the four-nation competition behind first-place New Zealand.
