Ireland head coach Andy Farrell calls on his side to show improved composure throughout the remainder of their autumn campaign after carving out a 22-19 win over Argentina.
Andy Farrell's side scored two early tries but were put under severe pressure by Argentina in the second halfIreland head coach Andy Farrell has urged his side to rediscover their ruthless edge in the remainder of their autumn campaign after carving out a 22-19 win over Argentina.
Farrell cut a frustrated figure at times during the game as his side failed to convert chances and put the game beyond Argentina's reach, leading to an uncomfortable finish."We came off the top of a line-out way over the gain-line with Jamie Osborne, Caelan comes around the corner, we're way over the gain-line again and then we're through and then there's a lack of composure on the back of it.
"We need to pick a side that's going to perform," he said. "What you don't just do is give everyone a game that's been unfortunate not to play so far. "It was a big old task for Tom, especially when it's a game of collision winning and they're going to test you through the forwards. They're a good scrummaging pack and I thought he did really well.
