Australia will do battle with Argentina in the final round of the 2020 Tri Nations this Saturday. The All Blacks have effectively won the tournament, but with vital points up for grabs, the Wallabies and Los Pumas will be going all out for that runners-up spot. Here's how to watch a Australia vs Argentina free live stream from anywhere in the world.

Good news! Rugby fans in Australia can stream Australia vs Argentina live and for free on 10play. The streaming service is only available from within Australia. Going to be abroad? You can use NordVPN to access 10play as if you were back in Oz!

Last week, New Zealand all but secured the Tri Nations silverware with an emphatic 38-0 win over Argentina.

This week, it's the final round of the tournament: a mouthwatering clash between Australia and Argentina. With four points awarded for a win, a bonus-point victory would not be enough for either side to snatch the silverware.

That's not to say Australia or Argentina couldn't win the Tri Nations, but they'd need to smash every rugby record in the book to overcome the All Blacks' massive points difference.

It's been a momentous tournament for both teams, with both Los Pumas and Australia scoring shock victories over the All Blacks.  

The Wallabies return to Bankwest Stadium for the first time since their victory of Manu Samoa in September 2017 to take on Argentina. 

But after suffering a scoreless loss against the All Blacks, Los Pumas will be keen to beat Dave Rennie's side and leave with their heads held high. 

Australia vs Argentina kicks off at 8.45am (UK time) at the Bankwest Stadium, Sydney, on Saturday 5th December. Read on to find out how to live stream the final round of the 2020 Tri Nations wherever you are.

Even if you have subscribed to the relevant Australia vs Argentina rights holders, you won't be able to access these streaming services when outside your own country. The service will know your location based on your IP address, and will automatically block your access.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps you get around this obstacle. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, such that the servers and services you’re accessing aren’t aware of what you’re doing. All the information passing back and forth is entirely encrypted.

There are many VPN providers out there, with some more reliable and safe than others. As a rule, we’d suggest a paid-for service such NordVPN.

NordVPN (30-day money-back guarantee) £2.86 per month

NordVPN (30-day money-back guarantee) <a href="https://go.nordvpn.net/aff_c?offer_id=18&url_id=904&aff_id=3013&aff_click_id=hawk-custom-tracking&aff_sub2=hawk-article-url" data-link-merchant="go.nordvpn.net"">£2.86 per month
You can get three months free when you sign up to  two-year plan, bringing VPN access to smart devices including the Amazon Fire TV Stick, laptops, TVs and both Android and iOS mobiles and tablets. NordVPN also offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Once you’ve subscribed, all you need to do is sign in to your VPN service through whichever device you’d like to use to watch the match, and pick a server which is based in the country whose content you’d like to access. Then navigate to the relevant video streaming app and you’re in.

Should you still find yourself geo-blocked, make sure that you have the latest version of your VPN software. If that doesn't do it, head to the Preferences section and try different protocols.
