AFP

Pumas centre Santiago Chocobares is unlikely to play again this year following surgery on his left knee, the Argentina rugby federation announced on Tuesday. 

The 23-year-old will have an operation in France on Wednesday on his knee which he injured while playing for Toulouse in the Top 14.

Chocobares, who made his international debut in Argentina’s famous win over the All Blacks in November 2020, will miss the coming series against Scotland and, according to the Pumas’ Twitter feed has “an approximate recovery time estimated at between six to eight months”.

Leicester’s Matias Moroni replaces him in Michael Cheika’s squad for the three Tests against Scotland in July. 

Inevitably Chocobares is also out of Toulouse’s Top 14 playoff against La Rochelle on Saturday.

Super Bowl shatters viewership records with 123.4 million tuning in for Chiefs’ victory

The Super Bowl last Sunday, where the Kansas City Chiefs emerged victorious with a 25-22 win over the San Francisco 49ers and featured Taylor Swift as a star spectator, achieved a record-breaking audience of 123.4 million viewers, setting a new benchmark for television broadcasts in U.S. history.

This spectacle surpassed the previous record held by last year’s Super Bowl, in which the Chiefs also clinched the title, this time against the Philadelphia Eagles, gathering 115.1 million viewers.

The 2024 Super Bowl ranks just behind the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969, which had an estimated viewership of between 125 and 150 million people in the U.S. However, the comparison is somewhat imprecise since the moon landing was broadcast across various networks, whereas the 2024 Super Bowl was exclusively aired on CBS and its affiliated channels and platforms.

Data from Nielsen Fast National and Adobe Analytics, released by the NFL in a statement on Monday, showed that 120 million people watched the game on CBS.

The remaining viewers tuned in through Paramount+, Nickelodeon, Univision, CBS Sports, and NFL+. Notably, the 2.2 million viewers on Univision set a new record for a Super Bowl broadcast on a Spanish-speaking network.
