Scotland held on to record their first southern hemisphere series win with a 13-9 victory over Argentina in Mar del Plata's Estadio Jose Maria Minella.

Jim Hamilton's first international try helped the tourists into a 10-6 half-time lead.

Martin Rodriguez's penalty brought the Pumas to within one point of Andy Robinson's side.

But Dan Parks replied for the Scots, who survived a late charge by stealing a line-out at the death.

The historic result secures Scotland's first Test series win on foreign soil and their third consecutive away victory, their best run on the road since 1982, which began in Dublin and continued when Parks kicked all of Scotland’s points during a 24-16 win in Tucuman.

Stand-off Dan Parks said it feels "special" to be part of the first Scotland side to win a series in the southern hemisphere.

"It's the first time, certainly since I've been involved, that we've won two games away. It's very pleasing," he said.

"It's special and a great feeling; we'll enjoy this moment."
