Serra praises Pumas defence
Argentina full-back Federico Serra paid tribute to the Puma’s defensive effort as they beat Italy 24-6 in Mendoza on Saturday.
The Pumas controlled the game at the Malvinas Argentinas stadium with coach Marcelo Loffreda even able to give a host of players a chance to impress and try and force their way into his Rugby World Cup squad.
Serra was put in a man-of-the-match performance after scoring 19 points for his team.
“The defence was the strong point of the team,” said Serra.
“That relaxed the players and gave them the confidence needed to create problems.
“Without any doubts, we are in good shape in the defence as there is a structure which every player knows how to fulfil.
“The most important thing is the attitude and the Pumas have a lot of that,” he added.
