TMO’s mistake

The television match official made an error in ruling out a try for Wales in their Six Nations match against England, World Rugby said yesterday. The TMO ruled that Wales fullback Gareth Anscombe failed to ground the ball properly in an incident in the 23rd minute of the game at Twickenham. The score at the time was 12-0 to England, which ended up winning 12-6. Following a review, World Rugby said it has ‘‘clarified to the Wales team management . . . that the TMO made an error’’ and that ‘‘Wales should have been awarded a try as the Wales player grounded the ball’’.
