Tiesi set to face England

Argentina coach Santiago Phelan made one change to his starting line-up today for their World Cup Pool B opening match against England, recalling outside centre Gonzalo Tiesi in place of Marcelo Bosch.

Tiesi, 26, who plays his club rugby with French side Stade Francais, comes into the side after missing Argentina’s only test match this year – a 28-13 defeat by Wales in Cardiff last month.

Both sides are in Scotland’s pool, with the Scots due to face Romania in their opening game in the early hours of Saturday.
