An inspired Argentina played with greater discipline to beat New Zealand 29-23 in a bruising Rugby Championship test Saturday and record their first home win over the All Blacks.

The Pumas were out-scored three tries to two in Buenos Aires but replacement flyhalf Santiago Carreras landed three second-half penalties to push them clear and respond in style to last week's 41-24 defeat in Cordoba.
