Argentina, beyond the fact that it had been performing very well, had lost against South Africa in the semifinals. The French media, prior to the match, had expressed that the Argentine National Team was going to know the real “Rugby Champagne”. It was not so.
At 52 minutes, there was an attack by the Gauls that seemed very dangerous but, after a cross, it ended up in Argentine hands and the Pumas went on the attack with a masterful team play that started with Ignacio Corleto running down the left of the field. Then, Contepomi made a pass with his hands up and after a jump by Juani Hernández, there was a contact between the two second rows Albacete and Rimas Álvarez, so that Federico Martín Aramburú crowned one of the best tries of the championship.
Martin Aramburu He had entered at the last minute among those summoned for that 2007 World Cup, with the team already installed in Paris. Due to the overpopulation of figures in the center of the field, during that championship the coach chose to place him on the wing. Although he was not a player who had a preponderant role within the team, he managed to make some differences, such as the try scored against Georgia, where Argentina obtained the bonus point to place first in the group and avoid playing against the All Blacks.
Those Pumas marked an incomparable era, with Agustín Pichot leading the team, accompanied by a table of stars including Mario Ledesma, Felipe Contempomi, Martín Durán and Juan Fernández Lobbe.
