Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend has also been talking to Sky Sports, starting with what impressed him most:
"How we started the second half, we really took the ball to them, and some of the running lines were superb. A real credit to our team.
"There's a lot of togetherness in the squad - they're a group that cares about each other and cares about playing for their country. We can still improve though.
"It'll be great for our supporters - that's who we play for. I thought our pack were fantastic, the back-row in particular. It'a a good foundation to build on for next week.
"Kyle Rowe on his first cap to pick up a serious injury, I really feel for him. You could see how much it meant to him when he found out he was going to play today. Rory Hutchinson will be a doubt for next week too."

FT: Argentina 6-29 Scotland
Scotland captain Grant Gilchrist has been giving his thoughts to Sky Sports post-match:
"Really proud of the boys", he said, "but we won't get ahead of ourselves.
"There's a lot of growth left in this team, and we'll need that next week - we want to win the series.
"We felt we were the fitter team and that showed in the second half.
[On Hamish Watson and Rory Darge]: "They're pretty good aren't they! Hamish Watson showed that he's world-class on his 50th cap."
