Attitude key for Pumas, says Loffreda

WORLD CUP quarter-finalists Argentina will continue to thrive on adversity, Pumas coach Marcelo Loffreda said yesterday.

Argentina upset traditional rugby powers France and Ireland to finish top of the toughest group and qualify for a quarter-final against Scotland at the Stade de France on Sunday.

“We love adversity,” Loffreda said repeatedly, emphatically and with a grin at a press conference.
