Five members of Australia's men's Olympic hockey team have been disciplined after breaching COVID-19 rules to buy alcohol in the national team's latest embarrassment at Tokyo 2020.

The players left the Olympic Village yesterday.

BBC News reports the incident comes after Australia's men's rugby sevens and rowing teams were found to have damaged their rooms.

The sevens players' behaviour on their flight home was labelled "unacceptable" by Rugby Australia.

Australia's hockey players were discovered to have left the village the day after their defeat by Belgium in the gold-medal match.
