No disciplinary action for ‘gouging’ Pumas

ARGENTINEAN players alleged to have gouged six different Irish opponents in Saturday’s Lansdowne Road cliffhanger will not face any disciplinary action.

The Italian match commissioner deemed the evidence on the match video to be inconclusive after the Irish management requested he examine the tape.

Irish coach Eddie O’Sullivan accepts this is the end of the matter while also expressing his deep upset at the tactics adopted by the Pumas.
