ENGLAND FLY-HALF Toby Flood has been cited for an alleged tip tackle during Leicester’s 19-14 win at Worcester.
Flood will face an Rugby Football Union disciplinary hearing on Tuesday following the dangerous tackle on Worcester’s Andy Goode in Friday’s Premiership match.
Although Flood escaped any action for the challenge during the game, he could still be facing a suspension.
A ban would leave Flood in danger of missing Leicester’s crucial European Cup pool games against the Ospreys and Toulouse later this month as well as England’s Six Nations opener against Scotland on February 4.
Ireland play England at the Aviva Stadium a week later on February 10.
