The incident is alleged to have occurred in Saturday night’s World Cup semi-final.
South Africa have begun investigating an alleged racist slur directed at England flanker Tom Curry by their hooker Mbongeni Mbonambi.
Curry drew the incident to the attention of referee Ben O’Keeffe in the second quarter of the match at the Stade de France.Although the alleged slur is not audible on the ref mic, Curry’s subsequent conversation with O’Keeffe is.O’Keeffe replied: “Nothing, please. I’ll be on it.”“We are aware of the allegation, which we take very seriously, and are reviewing the available evidence. We will engage with Bongi if anything is found to substantiate the claim,” an SA Rugby statement read.
Mbonambi, who took over as captain once Siya Kolisi had been replaced, refused to shake Curry’s hand at the end of a dramatic clash in Paris that was won by Handre Pollard’s penalty after 78 minutes. The sport’s global governing body can also choose to pursue the matter, with any case likely to be brought under the ‘bringing the game into disrepute’ banner.
