England back-rower Tom Curry will face no further disciplinary action following a review into the alleged clash between him and Argentina head coach Felipe Contepomi.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the aftermath of England\u2019s 27-23 win over Argentina at the Allianz Stadium, Twickenham, a scuffle broke out between the two sets of players, with Los Pumas players unhappy over Curry\u2019s late tackle on full-back Juan Cruz Mallia \u2013 which led to the Toulouse back rupturing his ACL.<\/p>\n
\u2018No formal sanction will be issued\u2019<\/p>\n
Things quickly escalated from there. Speaking to the press after the match, Contepomi alleged Curry shoved him in the chest and told him to \u2018f*** off\u2019 with the Argentina<\/a> boss describing Curry as a \u2018bully\u2019.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was not only the tackle by Curry because it\u2019s probably part of his nature to bully people,\u201d said Contepomi<\/a>. \u201cHe came into the tunnel, and he gave me a shove on the chest.<\/p>\n \u201cMaybe that\u2019s just in his nature, I don\u2019t know, but those are the guys whom we are rewarding and praising \u2013 maybe that\u2019s where we want rugby to go.\u201d<\/p>\n Following the match, Argentina lodged a formal complaint with the Six Nations \u2013 the organising body behind the Autumn Nations Series \u2013 with the RFU later offering to cooperate with any required evidence.<\/p>\n Rassie Erasmus\u2019 verdict on World Rugby\u2019s \u2018special ruling\u2019 for England-bound back who is Springboks-tied<\/a><\/p>\n Ben Youngs: Three \u2018world-class partnerships\u2019 and why it\u2019s time for South African teams to \u2018really show up\u2019 in Investec Champions Cup<\/a><\/p>\n However, following an investigation by the organising body, Curry will now face no further punishment.<\/p>\n
