Argentina’s full-back Juan Cruz Mallia has suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury to his right knee, sustained in Sunday’s 27–23 defeat to England at Twickenham

The 29-year-old was forced off late in the game after a tackle by England flanker Tom Curry, which angered the Pumas.

Coach Felipe Contepomi branded Curry a ‘bully’ following a heated tunnel bust-up, accusing him of shoving and swearing. Mallia’s club Toulouse confirmed he will undergo further tests to assess the severity of the injury.
