All Blacks Dominate Argentina in Rugby Championship

New Zealand achieved a decisive 42-10 victory over Argentina in the Rugby Championship at Auckland's Eden Park, redeeming themselves after last week's loss. Star performers included Damian McKenzie and Will Jordan, as the All Blacks maintained their undefeated streak at Eden Park.

New Zealand rode a first-half try blitz to a 42-10 victory over Argentina in the Rugby Championship at Auckland's Eden Park on Saturday to avenge last week's shock loss to the Pumas in Wellington. Damian McKenzie, skipper Ardie Savea, Caleb Clarke, Will Jordan, and Beauden Barrett all crossed to give the All Blacks a 35-3 lead at halftime despite teeming rain and strong winds at the spiritual home of New Zealand rugby.

Jordan added his second try soon after the break to drive home the advantage, but the Pumas managed to stem the flood of tries before scoring one of their own through Juan Cruz Mallia in the 72nd minute. Flyhalf McKenzie converted all six All Blacks tries with a perfect night from the kicking tee as New Zealand extended their 30-year unbeaten run at Eden Park to 50 tests.
