Ojomoh stars as England edge Argentina in Twickenham thriller
Max Ojomoh had an England home debut to remember, scoring a try and creating his side's other two, in a dramatic 27-23 defeat of Argentina at Twickenham on Sunday as Steve Borthwick's men ended 2025 with their 11th win in a row.
England led 17-3 at half-time in their Autumn Nations Series finale, with Bath centre Ojomoh, only appearing in his second Test after Fraser Dingwall pulled out with injury on Friday, and Exeter wing Immanuel Feyi-Waboso both scoring tries.
George Ford converted both scores and landed a drop-goal as well, with Argentina's lone first-half score coming via a penalty from Tomas Albornoz.
Argentina, however, reduced England's lead to just a point at 17-16 heading into the final quarter with a converted try from Justo Piccardo and a penalty each -- both in front of the posts - from Albornoz and replacement fly-half Santiago Carreras.
With the Pumas eyeing another dramatic comeback after recovering from 21-0 down to beat Scotland 33-24 at Murrayfield last weekend, Ojomoh -- the son of former England flanker Steve -- sent in centre partner Henry Slade for a fine try.
Ford converted and then added a penalty, the fly-half finishing with a match haul of 12 points.
But Argentina wing Rodrigo Isgro scored a last-minute try, converted by Carreras, with time still left in the game for a re-start.
The Pumas pressed hard for the try that would clinch the game but a botched line-out in the fourth minute of stoppage time allowed England to close out the game.
