U20 Championship Top Performers - Semi Finals
- 4668
We take a look at the top performers following a pulsating penultimate round of the 2018 World Rugby U20 Championship action.
Mateo Carreras (Argentina)
A number of Argentina's players put in strong performances for the Los Pumitas including the likes of Manuel Nigues and Juan Molina but our top performer from the match was the exciting full back Mateo Carreras.
Carreras linked up well with his fellow back three and was a consent thorn in the Wales defence.
😱 This @unionargentina try has it all.

Guy Graham (Scotland)
Again there were a number of players to pick in a Scotland side that put a big shift in to beat Ireland 29-45.
Our pick goes to Guy Graham who came off the bench early on in the encounter.
He sliced through the Irish defence early in the second half to score a fantastic try but was industrious throughout the game.
Giovanni D'Onofrio (Italy)
Definitely a player to keep an eye on in the future. The Italian speedster was brilliant in the air, showed his great pace and finishing ability to run in a hattrick.

ICYMI: The @FFRugby show unbelievable power to turnover New Zealand's scrum. They put this one into sixth gear #WorldRugbyU20s pic.twitter.com/LThYTN9rqE
