Los Pumitas Head Coach Nicolás Fernández Lobbe has named the Argentine under 20 starting lineup for the Junior World Championship opening round fixture against France.
Included in the team are players to have been involved in the 2016 Americas Rugby Championship. One such player is Domingo Miotti who will start at fly half in what is his third Junior World Championship campaign.
Captaining the side will be back-rower Benito Paolucci who is in his second Junior World Championship. His previous outing, against New Zealand in 2015, featured five other others who will start against France – Gaspar Baldunciel, Ignacio Calas, Julián Domínguez, Patricio Baronio and Miotti.
