DUBLIN (AP) — England will debate the worth of taking Immanuel Feyi-Waboso on its Americas tour next month after the winger received a two-match suspension on Sunday.
Feyi-Waboso was sent off during the England XV's 26-24 loss to a France XV on Saturday at Twickenham.

He caught Antoine Hastoy in the head with a swinging right arm in an attempted first-half tackle. His yellow card was upgraded on review to a 20-minute red card.
A World Rugby disciplinary hearing confirmed it was a dangerous tackle and suspended Feyi-Waboso for both of England's tests in Argentina on July 5 and 12.
He will be available for the test against the United States on July 19 in Washington, D.C., if he completes World Rugby's tackle school.
Saturday's game was Feyi-Waboso's first action since December, when he dislocated his shoulder. He missed the Six Nations and a possible place in the British and Irish Lions squad.

England is set to name its touring squad on Monday.
France lock Cameron Woki, who was sent off in the same game for an illegal clearout, will have his hearing on Tuesday.

Tommy Fleetwood's Wife Clare Fleetwood Has Surprising Role in His Career
Tommy Fleetwood's Wife Clare Fleetwood Has Surprising Role in His Career originally appeared on Athlon Sports. As the Travelers Championship heads into its final round on Sunday, Tommy Fleetwood stands at the top of the leaderboard with a stunning 16-under-par. The 34-year-old Englishman carded a bogey-free 63 in the third round, including an eagle on the 13th. If he holds onto his three-shot lead, Fleetwood can claim his first career PGA Tour victory, a title that has eluded him despite 41 top-10 finishes. Advertisement What makes his journey unique is the woman by his side: his wife and manager, Clare Fleetwood. Married to Tommy Fleetwood since 2017, Clare has played a crucial role in both his personal and professional life. The two first met through Tommy's brother, Joe, when Clare was already working in sports management. Despite a 23-year age gap, their relationship blossomed after she became his manager in 2015. Tommy Fleetwood looks on during the second round of the U.S. Open. Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images 'As we ... sat there listening to different proposals, I'm like, 'I can do this,'' Clare, 57, shared on the Performance People podcast. ' But I just for some reason at the beginning thought I couldn't and I shouldn't. ... Then we gave it six months, and it worked, so we carried on.' Clare, a seasoned professional at Hambric Sports Management and vice president for European operations, initially considered stepping aside when their romance began. But after sitting through other management proposals, she realized, 'I can do this.' Tommy credits her with keeping him grounded, saying, 'She's very clever. ... She judges situations better than you do when you're playing.' The Fleetwoods share a son, Franklin, born in 2017, and Clare has two sons, Oscar and Mo, from a previous relationship. With Tommy's consistent performances and Clare's sharp guidance, the Fleetwood duo continues to chase that elusive PGA win. The Travelers Championship might finally be their moment.

(Marijan Murat/dpa via AP) CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Kylian Mbappe will likely return Thursday against Salzburg after being sidelined from Real Madrid's first two Club World Cup games, according to coach Xabi Alonso. Alonso told The Associated Press, after the team's 3-1 win over Pachuca on Sunday, that he is 'looking forward to have him back. We need to go day by day." Advertisement Mbappe experienced an acute case of gastroenteritis and was discharged from the hospital Thursday. Mbappe missed the Spanish giant's opening game of the tournament — a surprise 1-1 draw against Saudi Arabian team Al Hilal in Miami — because of a fever. Real Madrid academy forward Gonzalo Garcia stepped up to fill Mbappe's absence during the group stage, scoring his team's only goal against Al Hilal and also starting against Pachuca. The French international's debut at the Club World Cup is highly anticipated as one of the tournament's biggest stars. Mbappe was the highest scorer for Real Madrid last season, scoring 43 goals in official appearances. Real Madrid needs only a draw against Salzburg to guarantee advancement to the knockout rounds in their last Group H game Thursday. ___ AP soccer:
