Lock Alemanno to make 100th Pumas appearance against Scotland
Second-row Matias Alemanno will become the fifth player to play 100 games for Argentina when they face Scotland in the Nations Championship this weekend, the Argentine Rugby Union announced on Thursday.
Alemanno, 34, made his Test debut in 2014 and will join a select club which includes the retired Nicolas Sanchez and Agustin Creevy as well as flanker Pablo Matera and hooker Julian Montoya, who both start Saturday's match in Cordoba.
Alemanno, who was born in the city, will partner Guido Petti in the second row with the Harlequins forward set for his 99th Pumas appearance.
Petti is one of six players to keep his place from their last game, a 27-23 loss away to England in November.
Skipper Montoya, tight-head prop Pedro Delgado, flanker Santiago Grondona, fly-half Tomas Albornoz and winger Rodrigo Isgro are the other five.
Argentina (15-1)
Santiago Carreras; Rodrigo Isgro, Lucio Cinti, Faustino Sanchez Valarolo, Mateo Carreras; Tomas Albornoz, Gonzalo Garcia; Joaquin Oviedo, Santiago Grondona, Pablo Matera (capt), Matias Alemanno, Guido Petti; Pedro Delgado, Julian Montoya, Mayco Vivas
Replacements: Ignacio Ruiz, Boris Wenger, Tomas Rapetti, Franco Molina, Joaquin Moro, Agustin Moyano, Matias Morno, Bautista Delguy
Coach: Felipe Contepomi (ARG)
