Curry, 25, competed for the ball as Mallia descended from collecting the ball mid air.
This caused a shocking collision between the pair, which left the Argentine in a blood-stricken mess on the floor.
And after initially being thrown in the sin bin by referee Mathieu Raynal, he was then sent off ten minutes into the game to leave England down to 14 players.
However, fans were not very happy with the decision, believing him to not be directly at fault for the clash.
Reacting to the decision, one fan wrote: “That’s an accidental clash of heads.”
A second said: “Harsh to be honest- seemed to be more accidental to be fair.”
“Accidental.. terrible decision,” declared a third.
A fourth wrote: “So an accidental clash of heads is now enough for a red card? This is getting ridiculous.”

Another added: “That is the worst decision I have ever seen. The bloke has jumped into him.”
But moments after the original incident, Argentina’s Santiago Carreras found himself in the sin bin after clattering into England’s George Ford with a high tackle to also put the south Americans down to 14.
