Argentina make changes for second Test
Argentina coach Santiago Phelan made changes on the wings when he named his side for Saturday's second Test against Scotland in Buenos Aires.
Wingers Horacio Agulla and Lucas Borges replaced Tomas de Vedia and Jose Maria Nunez Piossek with the Pumas aiming to wrap up the series after last week's 21-15 victory in Rosario.
The World Cup semi-finalists remain unchanged elsewhere with hooker Alvaro Tejeda set to win his second cap after making a try-scoring debut in the first Test.
Argentina are seeking to maintain a near-perfect record over the Scots, having triumphed in their last seven encounters after losing the side's first meeting 18 years ago.
Argentina: Bernardo Stortoni, Lucas Borges, Gonzalo Tiesi, Felipe Contepomi (capt), Horacio Agulla, Federico Todeschini, Nicolas Vergallo, Manuel Leguizamon, Juan Martin Fernandez Lobbe, Martin Durand, Esteban Lozada, Ignacio Fernandez Lobbe, Santiago Gonzalez Bonorino, Alvaro Tejeda, Marcos Ayerza. Res: Pablo Gambarini, Juan Gomez, James Stuart, Alvaro Galindo, Alfredo Lalanne, Federico Aramburu, Federico Serra.
