The Pumas achieved a historic victory in the Rugby World Cup.

Once the emotions had passed, Moroni spoke before the media microphones and showed his joy at making it to the best four teams in the World Cup. “We are going to Paris. The truth is that the effort this team made since the year started, a lot of people talking nonsense and we closed ourselves off more than ever… And a lot of people who didn’t trust, a lot of people who did trust who got up before playing the last game with Japan… Let all these people who were upstairs know that we are going to go to war in Paris.

“I ran with everything, with my club, with my family, with my friends, with this whole band… Nothing, luckily we were able to win, it was going to be a very tough game. We started dominating, due to different circumstances we were down although I don’t want to talk about the referees, the team continued to trust in the system and we won the game. This shirt is the most important thing I have, I play rugby for this shirt. We are once again in the situation of playing the most important game in the history of Los Pumas, no one has ever won it but we are going to go to Paris against whoever it is,” said Tute.
