Argentina wing Ramiro Moyano will miss the upcoming round of the Rugby Championship clash against New Zealand in Buenos Aires following a rib injury.

The 28-year-old sustained the injury during the 19-23 win over Australia in Gold Coast where he left the field in the 33rd minute.

Meanwhile, Argentina head coach Mario Ledesma has also left out Joaquin Diaz Bonilla, Enrique Pieretto, Leonardo Senatore and Rodrigo Bruni in the squad for the game against the All Blacks.

With eight points from four games, Argentina are positioned third in the Rugby Championship table and have already had a memorable tournament with wins over South Africa and Australia in the second and fourth rounds respectively.
