(Reuters) - New Argentina coach Michael Cheika says his side need to worry less about the score and focus more on playing if they are to replicate Saturday’s success over Scotland and go on to win three-test series.

Argentina beat Scotland 26-18 in San Salvador de Jujuy in the first test but Cheika says they need to change aspects of their play to win the next two -- in Salta on Saturday and in Santiago del Estero on July 16.
