Argentina win in comfortable fashion as Saed Ghaffari's strong raiding exploits keep them undefeated in the tournament. With this loss for Argentinga, South Korea have moved into the final four of the tournament.
Shadloui is taken down by Canencia at the centre of the mat but waits and gets another touch before getting his hand past the mid-line. Two points for Iran as we near the end of the match.
Sebastian Canencia goes in as the last man to raid and manages to get a touch and bonus point to barely keep them alive in the contest after being thrown out of the bounds by the defenders.
Franco Castro goes in against three men and forces Naseri deep into the right corner and rushes to the mid-line as Iran are now in danger of an unexpected all-out.
Mariano Pascual moves around a lot during his raid and capitalizes on a slip by Ghorbani to stumble across the mid-line to score his 5th raid point of the match. He has been impressive for the Argentina side.
Ghorbani goes to raid from the left side and manages to get two points after a great effort escaping from the ankle hold and gets an added touch point as the defender tried to keep him away.
Naseri is caught on the left corner with a diving ankle hold and Canencia rushes in with a dash to bring him down on the lobby. Good combination by the South Americans.
First points of the half for Iran and what a way to begin....a Super Raid of four points!! Afshin Jafari almost wipes out the entire Argentina defensive line with a show of strength and gets them down to just one man on the mat.
Nahuel Lopez goes in for a do-or-die raid and the Iran defence is patient and lure him in but the raider goes out of bounds during his kick attempt and loses his balance.
