Tough day at the office for Wales Rugby as Steve Tandy kicked off his coaching era with a tough match against Argentina. Despite hopes for a fresh start, the Principality Stadium hosted its smallest crowd in a decade.
The game ended with Argentina achieving their biggest ever win over Wales, scoring 52 points. Our boys put up a spirited fight, rallying to level the score after falling behind early. However, yellow cards, discipline issues, and a few key moments, including a contested penalty, saw the scores slip away. Jac Morgan, fresh off his Lions exploits, was a force to be reckoned with, but even his powerful run couldn’t turn the tide as key players faced injuries or penalties.
Emotions ran high with the crowd cheering every glimpse of promise. Dewi Lake and Tomos Williams tried to lift the team, but Argentina’s tenacity proved too much. The return of Louis Rees-Zammit brought a flicker of excitement, though luck wasn’t on his side today.
Despite the losses, there’s a sense that change is on the horizon. Coach Tandy and the squad are determined to learn and grow from this. Fans were hopeful, believing in the potential for brighter games ahead—even if the outcome was not in our favour this time.
As the crowd trickled out into the rainy Cardiff night, the question remained: Can Tandy transform this era for Welsh rugby? Stay tuned for what promises to be a journey of determination and transformation. 🏉🌧️ #WalesRugby #NewEra #KeepTheFaith
