England rugby union coach Clive Woodward has been handed an autumn selection problem after his young side won 26-18 against Argentina at Velez Sarsfield.

An under-strength England side served up one of the best wins in Woodward's five-year career in the backyard of a side who had beaten France the previous week.

Argentina were expected to beat an England squad lacking the likes of Martin Johnson, Lawrence Dallaglio, Jonny Wilkinson and Jason Robinson.

When England trailed 12-3 at half-time it seemed the bookies were going to be right but tries by Ben Kay and Phil Christophers silenced the passionate 40,000 crowd.
