Argentina full-back Nicolas Tagliafico was dropped by Olympique Lyon for their clash against Clermont Foot, and he has revealed the reason.
Attended Rugby World Cup without club's permissionInitial explanations for Tagliafico's omission from Lyon's roster included the club's lateness in receiving him after his foreign trip. According to L'Equipe, Tagliafico missed Lyon's loss to Clermont Foot on Sunday after being present for Argentina's Rugby World Cup semi-final loss to New Zealand on Friday., "We spoke about it with the manager and he decided not to play me. Of course, I accepted that.
He also told me that he didn’t like me going to watch the rugby match on the Friday afternoon that we had off. I respect him and the most important thing is to stay united and strong. Lots of people know my commitment to the teams that I play in. I’ll continue to give everything every day, as always."The loss means that Fabio Grosso has yet to pick up a victory since joining Les Gones in mid-September.
