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

Resolve 20bet
Perseverance 20bet
Redemption 20bet
This Manchester United victory may not have been anywhere near as beautiful as any of those Sir Bobby Charlton graced, or indeed that tribute to his life, but it displayed some of the club’s soul that he made famous 20bet
Because this was obviously about so much more than just beating FC Copenhagen 1-0 late on, or indeed staying in the competition the club’s legend was most built on 20bet
It was certainly about so much more for Andre Onana, who had his first great moment at Manchester United in what was a must-win game 20bet
That was maybe what Charlton would have most enjoyed 20bet
Doing it when it mattered 20bet
A night that started with a gracefully poignant mourning of the great man ended with more appropriate celebration 20bet
It ended with deafening and defiant roar, in celebration of a player who has struggled in his first few weeks, in memory of a player who was perhaps the club’s greatest 20bet
And a player that has been pilloried and unpicked in Harry Maguire displayed defiance, scoring the winner for a relatively late 1-0 win 20bet
Onana then stepped up by getting it done, keeping it at 1-0 in the 96th minute, and keeping United in this great competition 20bet
The manner of that may not be how anyone wants this great institution to look right now but it was perseverance, exactly what Charlton, his manager and so many of his teammates would have asked for 20bet
United’s players celebrate Onana’s last-gasp save (Getty Images)The defeated Copenhagen also offered their own memorable contribution to the night beyond a respectable display that made United work, and that final penalty miss by Jordan Larsson 20bet
Before the game and throughout, they echoed the Stretford End in singing “there’s only one Bobby Charlton” 20bet
The rest of Old Trafford applauded 20bet
It should be recognised that wasn’t the sentiment that greeted most of the action 20bet
This was mostly another poor performance against a limited team, even if it was a third consecutive victory 20bet
Little of it beyond the context will live in the memory 20bet
Most would rather forget it 20bet
The problem is that it all informs what will be a game that really demands a performance on Sunday, which is the visit of Manchester City for the derby 20bet
United will need to be far sharper 20bet
Some allowances should be made, of course 20bet
Maguire went from zero to hero with a crucial goal for United (Getty Images)Such is the sense of history at United, that these sombre occasions have had the effect of subduing performance 20bet
It is as if the beauty of the bagpipes sounding that the club “will never die” makes everyone all too keenly aware of the legacy they are playing for 20bet
It happened on the 40th and 50th anniversaries of the Munich air disaster, dates which brought a 1-1 draw at home to Bolton Wanderers and a 2-1 defeat to a pre-Abu Dhabi Manchester City, respectively 20bet
One difference was that both of those sides were defending champions so, as with those last two wins, this felt like there was more to it than United feeling the weight of the occasion 20bet
It was really like a lot of matches at Old Trafford this season, right down to the way an inferior-resourced opposition side controlled long periods of the game in a way that shouldn’t really have been possible 20bet
The only proper action of the first half actually came very quickly after the tributes 20bet
Mohamed Elyounoussi just cut through Sofyan Amrabat and Maguire at first, in a way that really shouldn’t have happened, then sending a cross over for Diogo to bounce against the post 20bet
If there were initially fears this could become another chaotic back-and-forth like the Galatasaray defeat, it never got that entertaining, certainly in the first half 20bet
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag lays a wreath in tribute to Sir Bobby Charlton (PA Wire)Other than some moments of spark from Rasmus Hojlund, almost nothing happened 20bet
Ten Hag had to try something 20bet
Amrabat was removed 20bet
That did see United play a bit more directly, seeking to stretch the pitch more 20bet
Hojlund again offered constant warnings, and almost won a penalty straight into the second half 20bet
Marcus Rashford was even put through on goal, only to take a heavy touch 20bet
There were, very gradually, however, some positives 20bet
Onana looked at his most assured, making one fine save 20bet
It was all the more important since the Champions League has been the stage for arguably two of his biggest errors so far 20bet
That, like a lot on the night, made this more important than the individual moment 20bet
United’s was soon to come 20bet
Christian Eriksen, who came on for Amrabat, made the delivery 20bet
Maguire made the impact 20bet
The centre-half headed home 20bet
United should have been secured 20bet
An anxiety remained 20bet
It was 20bet betrayed by McTominay’s late foul 20bet
So much for the midfielder being a constant saviour 20bet
It was all just prelude and set-up 20bet
Onana stepped up 20bet
It was perhaps the most fitting tribute possible 20bet
