Michael Cheika has made only a single change to his starting Argentina side for the Rugby World Cup semi-final against New Zealand 20bet
Gonzalo Bertranou replaces Santiago Cubelli at scrum half, with last week’s starting nine dropping out of the 23 entirely 20bet
Otherwise, the rest of the matchday 23 is identical to that utilised in the quarter-final win over Wales in Marseille, with replacement hooker Agustin Creevy in line to become the oldest World Cup semi-finalist of all-time 20bet
Creevy, who has signed for Sale Sharks after the demise of London Irish, will surpass the record of Victor Matfield if he comes off the bench - the hooker will be 38 years and 219 days old on matchday 20bet
Centre Santiago Chocobares is fit to feature despite an early withdrawal against Wales after taking a knock to the head, with the back passing subsequent concussion tests 20bet

“The All Blacks have always been a benchmark in rugby 20bet
We are happy to be here and we know the challenges are getting harder and harder 20bet
“When you look at the history, it’s not in our favour 20bet
But it is down to us to change that on Friday 20bet
We will be ready and when we get on the field, we will do what we do best 20bet

After the euphoric evisceration of Paris Saint-Germain, this was the downbeat sequel Newcastle did not want 20bet
After the feelgood stories of the Geordie boys scoring in the Champions League came a tale of gritty realism, of meeting their match in the teeming Tyneside rain 20bet
There was no triumphant farewell to Sandro Tonali, either: instead Newcastle lost to a goal by a midfielder they considered signing in the summer, in Felix Nmecha, and who Borussia Dortmund bought instead 20bet
With Tonali likely to be banned for the rest of the season – he could learn his fate within days as an investigation into alleged breaches of 20bet betting rules nears its conclusion – Nmecha gave Newcastle an added reason to rue their choice 20bet
Nmecha was handed what seemed an unenviable task, hired from Wolfsburg, charged with replacing Jude Bellingham at the Signal Iduna Park 20bet
And if that feels impossible, his first Dortmund goal kickstarted their European campaign 20bet
Edin Terzic’s team had failed to find the net in their opening two games and if they looked like possible casualties in the competition’s group of death, it now looks like Newcastle could instead 20bet
The margins were narrow, the width of the woodwork that denied Callum Wilson and Anthony Gordon but Dortmund inflicted their first defeat in this competition since Barcelona in 2003 20bet
Now Newcastle will head into the rematch in Germany without Tonali 20bet
If his debut season in England ends early, it also came to an anti-climactic conclusion 20bet
The Italian came off the bench with 25 minutes to go, making scant difference to a game Dortmund were already controlling 20bet
Dortmund celebrate their winning goal (Getty Images)They were everything PSG were not, boasting the combination of organisation, team spirit and running power the French champions failed to show on Tyneside 20bet
Newcastle could not blow Dortmund away with their power: not when the visitors had a similar speed, and were lighting quick on the break 20bet
Nor could their crowd intimidate them into defeat: not when the travelling Germans were still more vocal 20bet
Instead, they encountered a team who could cancel out their strength, with a similar emphasis on high energy 20bet
It was not effort Newcastle lacked, but then it never is 20bet
Dortmund supplied a touch of class; arguably two, given the role of a pair of players in their goal 20bet
Given how well they defended, perhaps it was apt it began with a challenge 20bet
Nico Schlotterbeck halted Gordon with an immaculate tackle, surged clear and kept going, collecting Marco Reus’s return pass and squaring for Felix Nmecha to sidefoot in 20bet
For a few seconds, the centre-back looked more Beckenbauer than Schlotterbeck 20bet
The midfielder, who has something of Bellingham’s elegance, showed his technique with the finish 20bet
It had been threatened 20bet
The opening 10 minutes could have yielded two goals at either end, but thereafter in the first half Dortmund were the more dangerous 20bet
The scoreline would have been greater but for terrific saves at either end 20bet
If 20bet footballing goalkeepers have captured the Zeitgeist, Newcastle have a goalkeeping goalkeeper 20bet
Nick Pope was their saviour in San Siro and he threatened to reprise that role 20bet
A first-minute stop from Donyell Malen was excellent: 20bet better still was a superb double save to deny the Dutchman and Niclas Fullkrug 20bet
Malen produced a curiosity of a performance, adopting a shoot-on-sight policy and mustering six efforts before the break 20bet
Yet he was a sign of Dortmund’s counterattacking menace: their speed on the transition brought back memories of Jurgen Klopp’s blistering side a decade ago 20bet
Kieran Trippier, so often a great strength for Newcastle, was made to look a weak link as Dortmund found space behind him 20bet
Newcastle sent on Tonali late on (Getty Images)At the other end, meanwhile, Gregor Kobel made twin early saves from Gordon 20bet
His best save came early in the second half, repelling Wilson’s shot 20bet
And when Wilson beat Kobel with a late header, it bounced back off the bar 20bet
It was not Dortmund’s only reprieve: in the 94th minute, Gordon’s shot looped up off Sebastien Haller, over Kobel and on to the bar 20bet
Gordon was relentless, probably Newcastle’s best outfield player, yet Wilson’s prominence was a sign their plans were going awry 20bet
Eddie Howe had demoted the striker and selected Alexander Isak, but he limped off inside a quarter of an hour 20bet
When the substitute Jacob Murphy hurt his shoulder a few minutes after coming on, Newcastle may have, in effect, lost three players, given Tonali’s imminent suspension 20bet
And yet Dortmund were depleted, too, minus Julian Brandt, stripped of the stricken Emre Can before half-time 20bet
But there was a resourcefulness and a resilience to them, a willingness to them 20bet
A team with a lone defeat in the Bundesliga in 2023 were not to be beaten 20bet
And as Newcastle lost instead, it prompted the question of whether the anomaly was this underwhelming evening or the glorious night they demolished PSG 20bet
