Argentina flyhalf Tomas Albornoz is cited by World Rugby’s disciplinary committee following an incident after Argentina’s defeat to England in the Nations Championship last weekend. Multiple reports say the citation relates to an angry outburst directed at referee Angus Gardner. The disciplinary process is expected to follow World Rugby’s procedures for on-field conduct issues, with the matter reviewed by the committee after the match. While the reports confirm the referee was involved and that the outburst occurred in the context of the game, they do not provide additional details on the specific words or actions used, nor do they state what penalty—if any—will be imposed. The citation indicates that the governing body considers the incident serious enough to warrant formal review rather than relying on match-day measures alone. Further updates depend on the disciplinary committee’s findings and any outcome communicated by World Rugby.
