clasificación con 24 puntos, por detrás solamente Nueva Zelanda 41, Sudáfrica
39, Fidji 28 e Inglaterra 27.
Y en los 6 encuentros (3 de la ronda
clasificatoria y 3 de la promoción al oro), fue protagonista el trío cordobés
formado por Conrado Roura (21 años, del Palermo Bajo), Lautaro Bazán Vélez (21
años del Córdoba Athletic) y Luciano González Rizzoni (20 años de La Tablada).
Ellos se pusieron al hombro a la escuadra entrenada
por el porteño Santiago Gómez Cora y el tucumano Leonardo Gravano, marcando
Roura 40 puntos producto de 8 tries, máximo tryman argentino y la figura sin lugar a dudas en éste final de año.
Lautaro Bazán Vélez totalizó 38 puntos, producto
de 2 tries y 14 conversiones y Luciano González Rizzoni totalizó 15 puntos con
tres ensayos de tremenda espectacularidad y en momentos de alta intensidad. Los
tres veteranos son la columna vertebral de Argentina 7s.
Junto a ellos destacaron los porteños Rodrigo
Etchart con 32 puntos y Franco Sábato con 30 y el debutante mendocino
Maximiliano Filizzola, en sus primeros desafíos en el frenesí del juego
reducido.
Ésta realidad sudamericana prevaleció ante los
dos exponentes de Norteamérica: Estados
Unidos (eliminado en cuartos) y Canadá (en la cuneta en semifinales), Argentina
7s dejó su sello cordobés ante el público sudafricano que palpitaba otra final
más de sus Blitzboks.
