The Argentine rugby team wore jerseys inspired by Diego Maradona during their Nations Championship match against England. The side fell 31-24 in Santiago del Estero.
Los Pumas played in apparel designed exclusively for this encounter. The jersey symbolizes the recognition from Argentine rugby of one of the most emblematic teams in the history of national sport.
Former captain Agustín Creevy celebrated the gesture. “Fue buenísimo”, he highlighted in dialogue with TN.
The Argentine side failed to overcome the Rose in a tight and spicy match. In November it will face a tour of Europe, where it will meet France, Ireland and Italy.
