The 39-year-old hooker came off the bench in the last quarter to score his seventh try in tests and secure Argentina’s third win over New Zealand in 42 meetings. Creevy’s try in Wellington stemmed from a moment of abject panic among the All Blacks who, with two wild passes, retreated from near halfway to their own goal line where they conceded a five-meter scrum. The Pumas scrum held steady and Creevy was able to drive the ball through the defense under the posts.
