This amazing picture was taken during the first test on Saturday evening…

Ireland secured a relatively comfortable victory over Argentina in Resistencia last night. It wasn’t vintage by any means but Joe Schmidt’s side picked up a 29-17 win over the Pumas.

Ireland scored three tries with Chris Henry, Jonathon Sexton and Andrew Trimble all touching down. Trimble’s try saw him continue his great form in the green jersey and he was also involved in one of the most spectacular moments in the match.

We could try and describe what happened but a picture tells a thousand words… Look at that!

Argentina’s Tomás De la Vega was rightly sin-binned for that, such dangerous play but Trimble dusted himself off and got on with the game.

Hat-tip to Billy Stickland at Inpho for the picture, incredible shot.
