Juan Cruz Mallia Injury: What Happened To Juan Cruz Mallia?
The Lions flanker found himself in the sin bin just two minutes into the game following a collision with Juan Cruz Mallia.
It started when Curry, 25, competed for the ball as Mallia descended from collecting the ball mid air.
This caused a shocking collision between the pair, which left the Argentine in a blood-stricken mess on the floor.
He was too upright tackling Pumas fullback Juan Cruz Mallia, who was coming down from a leaping catch. They collided heads, and referee Mathieu Raynal initially yellow-carded Curry.
But the yellow was upgraded to red after a bunker review because Curry had clear line of sight on Mallia and no mitigation.
Curry became the first England player to be sent off at a men’s World Cup, and the fourth England player to be red-carded this year.
England used Curry’s absence as inspiration to beat Argentina 27-10 in a stunning turnaround on form. But Curry is set to appear before a judiciary and faces missing World Cup games.
England’s tackling technique has been a bane for coach Steve Borthwick.
