Argentinian rugby legend Agustin Creevy will be playing his last international match tomorrow when he lines up for Argentina against the Wallabies in round 3 of the Rugby Championship competition in Argentina.

Creevy informed the Argentina officials his decision this week, and the 39-year-old hooker was named on the bench for tomorrow’s clash.

Creevy made his international debut for Argentina in 2005 against Japan on the wing and has racked up Argentina records for the most tests with 109 caps.

He has also captained Argentina 51 times and also recorded the most appearances in the Rugby World Cup with 22 appearances.

While speaking on his decision, Creevy says he is leaving after having given his all and played to the utmost of his ability.

He says it is time to step aside because it is best for the team as he always puts the team first.

Argentina will host the Wallabies at 10am tomorrow.

Meanwhile, the All Blacks will take on the Springboks at 3am tomorrow in Johannesburg.
