Ireland claimed a convincing 30-point victory over Argentina on Friday after scoring six tries, but the performance was followed by an admission that the team had not been as ruthless as it could have been.
Head coach Andy Farrell and Ireland forward Tadhg Beirne both acknowledged that the side had opportunities to make the result even more decisive. Their comments came despite Ireland producing six tries in a dominant win over their opponents.
The result underlined Ireland’s attacking threat, with the six-try display helping them to a sizeable margin of victory. However, Farrell and Beirne’s assessment suggested that Ireland’s execution did not consistently match the quality of their opportunities.
Ireland therefore left the match with a major win, while also identifying a need for greater clinical finishing in future performances. No further details about the team’s next steps were provided.
