Scotland skipper Greig Laidlaw thinks his side got their reward for refusing to panic against Argentina.The scrappy Scots struggled to shake off the streetwise South Americans but eventually ground out a 19-16 win thanks to their captains stoppage-time penalty.It was sweet relief for the Gloucester scrum-half after he admitted letting Australia off the hook in last weeks narrow 23-22 defeat when he struck the post with a conversion.But having earlier seen his side cancel out Nicolas Sanchezs opening try with a quick-fire Sean Maitland touchdown, the captain kept his nerve when he was given a second chance, knocking over the decisive kick with 82-and-a-half minutes on the clock.Laidlaw, who kicked 14 points in total, said: That post doesnt like me at the minute. I struck it lovely but it just stayed dead straight and hung out to the right.The boys were giving me stick for taking two goes to win it but I was pretty happy to see the second one go between the posts.The key was after they scored. We stood under the posts and said, Dont panic, we can score tries.We hit straight back and scored then pegged them back straight away. Psychologically that was a huge blow to them.We were still annoyed from that Australia game last week so we were delighted to get on the right side of one today.Amid cold and wet conditions in Edinburgh, they struggled to keep hold of the ball while their fresh-faced pack toiled against the wily Pumas pack.But head coach Vern Cotter said: Its nice to be able to come away with the win. We knew it was going to be an arm-wrestle but I thought the boys responded really well.It wasnt perfect by any means but what we saw was a lot grit and character. The guys got what they went for and there are a lot of positives to come out of the game.We dominated territory in the first half, which I thought was good. We had opportunities and perhaps didnt make the most of them but it wasnt going to be an open game. Argentina came to squeeze us and get the win that way. We defended well and the win was a reflection of our determination.What I really liked was that they scored a try and we scored one ourselves straight back. That was important. Im very proud of the way the guys went about their business. Air Jordan 1 Cheap Australia .

RIO DE JANERIO -- It was the sort of victory that resonates for years, the sight of a colossus in a sport suddenly going down, with all the attendant shock and amazement that comes with that. But even so, it wasnt the Miracle on the Mat it might seem.American freestyle wrestler Helen Maroulis was only 18 when she was pinned by legendary Japanese wrestler Saori Yoshida in 69 seconds the first time they met. She tore a ligament in her elbow too. Just two years ago, Maroulis was among three Americans chosen to train with Yoshida and some of her Olympic countrywomen at a conference in Japan, which dominates womens freestyle wrestling the way the U.S. owns basketball, and Maroulis says, I didnt get a single takedown of them the whole time I was there.But Maroulis learned from it. She pushed herself even more after that. She got a new head coach, won the 2015 world title at a higher weight of 55kg, and by the time she and Yoshida walked out Thursday for their 53kg gold-medal match, all those years of chasing Yoshida and studying Yoshida on tape, all the real and imagined hours of wrestling against the great Yoshida and watching her from afar, knowing Yoshida was the woman to beat here in Rio even at the age 33, paid off. Because Maroulis had landed on something she was committed to trying now. And the fascinating thing is, it wasnt a throw or a move.It was a thought: What is it that separated Yoshida from everyone else? And if you could unlock that, wouldnt you have a better chance of being able to beat her?As Maroulis explained it Friday, Im not a great video scouter from a wrestling technician point of view. But I studied her for years and years ... And I just tried to get into her head, tried to get to see what she was thinking. From what I saw, shes just better at being patient [during a match].Then I was like, When youre used to being patient, knowing someone panics, what happens when youre patient and someone matches you in that? Then youll be the one to panic.Thats the thought I went into the match with.And?It haappened, Maroulis said Friday with a grin.ddddddddddddThe insight was a stroke of genius. No one else seemed to have the brains to figure it out and the talent to make it work. It was also a bit of a risk.Freestyle wrestling matches last only six minutes. Thats it. But Maroulis had trained for this moment against Yoshida with patience in mind, and she says shed wrestled that way in previous matches, always thinking about this potential match.Though the weight of knowing Yoshida hadnt given a point to anyone in these Olympics couldve hit Maroulis again once the match began, running like a freight train through her mind when the referee decided she wasnt being aggressive enough and put her on the shot clock -- meaning she had 30 seconds to try to score or Yoshida would be awarded a point -- Maroulis had a decision to make.And still she told herself, Do nothing. Be patient.I was just thinking Im not going to take a shot -- I can be down 1-0 and thats OK, Im going to show her even being down 1-0, Im still not going to get out of my game plan, Im not going to get out of my stance, Im not going to react to her movement. Im going to set the pace. Starting the second period, I think she knew that she might get put on the shot clock, and thats when she started opening up, and thats when I capitalized on that with my takedown.It was daring. It was smart. It happened exactly as Maroulis hoped it could. She was ahead 2-1 now, and then she added two more points near the end of the match, pushing her lead over Yoshida to 4-1. Bedlam broke out when it was over and everyone realized what she had done. Maroulis was romping around the mat with an American flag flying behind her. Yoshidas legendary run was over. Perhaps a new one had begun?By Friday, Maroulis happily admitted she hasnt slept for three days. And patience was still the word. Laughing now, she added had no idea when she might get some rest.
