Immanuel Feyi-Waboso: England wing banned for two matches after red card

England winger Immanuel Feyi-Waboso has been banned for two games after being sent off against a France XV on Saturday.

Feyi-Waboso was shown a 34th-minute red card at Allianz Stadium after catching Antoine Hastoy on the head with a swinging right arm as he attempted a tackle.

The Exeter wing, 22, missed England’s Six Nations campaign after dislocating his shoulder in December and is now suspended for their two-Test series in Argentina.

Once he has completed World Rugby’s coaching intervention programme – informally known as tackle school – Feyi-Waboso will be available for the final match of England’s summer tour against the United States on Saturday, 19 July.

World Rugby said “Feyi-Waboso’s actions were contrary to Law 9.13 (dangerous tackle), and carried a high degree of danger”.

England head coach Steve Borthwick is set to name his summer touring party on Monday.

Borthwick’s side face the Pumas in Buenos Aires on Saturday, 5 July before concluding the series in San Juan on Saturday, 12 July.
