ALFIE Barbeary’s World U20 Championship looks to be over after he was sent off in England’s 42-26 defeat to Ireland last night.
The Oxfordshire teenager, who attends Bloxham School, received a red card for lifting up and dropping John Hodnett in the Pool B fixture in Sante Fe, Argentina.
Wasps hooker Barbeary replaced Nic Dolly just after the hour mark with England trailing 28-26, but was dismissed five minutes later.
