PROFILES<br />
MANUEL MoNTERo, the promising back from the club Pucará, is one the future aces to be played by the Pumas<br />
technical management. The young wing has been part of several junior national teams and demonstrated his abilities<br />
and speed in the Pumas Sevens. After his positive performance with the Standard Bank Pampas XV in the 2012<br />
Vodacom Cup, he was summoned to play the June matches, and once more demonstrated why he is one of the<br />
most promising players. Moreover, he scored a key try in the first match against France in Cordoba, when Argentina<br />
