Focused Leguizamon confident ahead of ‘war’ against Ireland

ARGENTINEAN back row forward Juan Manuel Leguizamon might not yet be a household name, but the London Irish man soon might be.

This Argentinean team were never going to be world class according to the powers that be, but came in, nevertheless, to this World Cup seeded sixth following a run of good performances.

Everything is relative. A year ago, Ireland would have pitched in at three; now they have to settle for five, but after Sunday’s showdown in Paris against Argentina, they could be dumped a couple of rungs down the ladder.
