The alleged incident occurred in the second quarter of the Stade de France clash.
World Rugby has opened an investigation into the alleged racist slur directed at England flanker Tom Curry by South Africa hooker Mbongeni Mbonambi in Saturday’s World Cup semi-final.
“World Rugby takes all allegations of discriminatory behaviour extremely seriously,” a statement read. England – who had until Monday morning to lodge an official complaint with the citing officer – have declined to make any comment on the incident but South Africa began their own investigation on Sunday.
