Cameroon suspend ’keeper

Cameroon goalkeeper Andre Onana has been sent home from the World Cup for disciplinary reasons after a dispute with coach Rigobert Song. The Inter Milan goalkeeper was ‘‘temporarily suspended’’ from the team, the Cameroon football federation said, and the suspension would cover the rest of the tournament in Qatar. Onana also released a statement referring to his disagreement with Song over team tactics that led to him being dropped for Cameroon’s 3-3 draw with Serbia. Onana said he had tried to resolve the issues in a bid to stay at the World Cup. ‘‘I have put all my efforts and energy into finding solutions to a situation that a footballer often experiences, but there has been no will on the other side,’’ Onana said. Cameroon play their final group match tomorrow and have an outside chance of qualifying for the knockout phase.

Rugby officials say Australia halfback Nic White was wrongly allowed to play on after he was concussed against Ireland this month. White took a blow to the head in the second half at Lansdowne Road on November 19. As he was leaving the field for a head injury assessment, he stumbled twice. Those stumbles were ‘‘Criteria 1’’ displays of possible concussion and should have automatically resulted in White’s permanent removal from the field. But an independent review ordered by the Six Nations says the stumbles were missed. White passed the HIA by the independent match day doctor and returned to play the last 26 minutes. World Rugby noted from the independent report that the matchday doctor and Wallabies doctor were reviewing video of the head knock and didn’t see White’s stumbles coming off the field.
