A slow start, needless errors, two quick-fire tries conceded and key players going down injured.
It all fell apart for Argentina a week too late, for Irish fans anyway.
Daniel Hourcade’s side trail Australia were beaten by in their World Cup semi-final.
Argentine fears that their 43-20 romp over Ireland may have been their World Cup peak are, as it stands, proving correct.

Shocking from Imhoff after a brain fart by Santi. 😢

#RWC2015 If #Argentina had played like this last week, #Ireland would have beaten them, which is more than somewhat irritating.

Depressingly predictable. Argentina's great performance was the Ireland game. Fear that Aussies will give them a shoeing. #AusvArg #RWC2015
