the first 20-minute red card for a Top 14 player!

We saw some very interesting international matches on Friday and Saturday, but it continues this Sunday, particularly with Fiji traveling to Wales. Among the Fijians, many players play in the Top 14 and it is one of them who takes the first red card of this Autumn Nations Series.

Radradra turns yellow, then red

In the 21st minute of play, Semi Radradra, LOU Rugby player, received a yellow card from Luc Ramos (French referee who also plays in the Top 14), who asked for the bunker after the Fijian three-quarter arrived thrown like a ball at a Welshman while trying to tackle him. A gesture which is unfortunately very poorly controlled with Radradra's shoulder which lands without Cam Winnett's head. It is Sireli Maqala who replaces Semi Radradra after 20 minutes (remember that the player excluded on a temporary red cannot return but is therefore numerically replaced).

The yellow card will become a temporary red by decision of the bunker. This is the first of this November tour. Remember that on November 14, World Rugby will put the adoption of this rule to a vote. The French camp has already announced that it will vote against it.
