Very fit since the start of the season, the player from Squadra Azzurra and the “red and black” only played 7 minutes of the autumn tour match against Argentina.

The Italian players had a very bad evening in Udine. Heavily beaten by the Argentinians of Juan Cruz Mallia (50-18, first day of the fall tour), the Transalpines must deplore the loss of one of their best players: Ange Capuozzo.

The winger or full-back from Stade Toulousain was forced to leave his partners in the 7th minute, victim of a violent head impact. During an attempted tackle on Joel Sclavi, Capuozzo's head violently hit the knee of the pillar.

Stunned, the player was unable to continue the match and left on the concussion protocol. According to World Rugby regulations, he must now observe a mandatory 12-day rest period.

He will therefore miss his selection's next match, scheduled for Sunday November 17 in Genoa against Georgia. Ange Capuozzo is currently the third best scorer in the Top 14, author of five tries in eight matches.
