Argentina fly half Tomas Albornoz has been charged with misconduct following his aggressive confrontation with match officials after his team's defeat against England in Santiago del Estero. The incident occurred after a controversial last-minute try by Bautista Delguy was ruled out, leading to a final score of 31-24 in favor of England.

In the closing moments of the match, Albornoz was denied a chance to kick for a potential draw when referee Angus Gardner, in consultation with television match official Brett Cronan, determined that Delguy had simultaneously grounded the ball on the try-line and corner flag, thus invalidating the score.

Following the decision, Albornoz approached Gardner and his assistants in an aggressive manner, prompting World Rugby to charge him under its Match Official Abuse Sanction Process. The details of his disciplinary hearing are expected to be announced soon.

World Rugby clarified that the Match Official Abuse Sanction Process was developed to ensure a consistent framework for addressing public criticism of match officials, particularly to combat wider online abuse. This initiative reflects a unified commitment among various stakeholders to support match officials.

Argentina expressed disappointment not only over the disallowed try but also regarding the absence of a penalty try for a high tackle by Noah Caluori.
