England's 29‑10 Rugby League World Cup win over Lebanon in Sydney on Saturday night has been marred by a biting allegation levelled at winger Jermaine McGillvary.
Lebanon captain Robbie Farah did not back down from a claim that McGillvary bit his arm in a second-half tackle after the five tries to two loss at a wet Allianz Stadium.
McGillvary was placed on report in the 42nd minute after Farah made the explosive claim.
Farah claimed he was bitten while he tackled the England winger.
In other results, Tonga out muscled Samoa 32‑18 while New Zealand beat Scotland 74‑6.
The Vodafone Fiji Bati will be taking on Wales at 9.30 tonight.
Papua New Guinea will take on Ireland at 7pm while Italy will also take on USA at 7pm.
