OSAKA - Argentina hooker Julian Montoya scored a hat-trick in the first 26 minutes as the Pumas got their World Cup campaign back on track with a 28-12 victory over Tonga on Saturday that snapped a 10-match losing streak.
That they failed to add to their score in the second half will be of some concern, however, as the twice World Cup semi-finallists head into their clash with pool leaders England in Tokyo next weekend. Knowing they had to beat Tonga to have any chance of pipping France to the group’s second qualifying berth, Argentina signalled their intent early by opting to kick for touch when Veainu conceded a penalty in front of the posts.
Montoya then got his third try in the 26th minute to became the second Argentine player to score a World Cup hat-trick after Martin Gaitan in 2003 against Namibia.
