Gloucester flanker Andy Hazell admitted he was embarrassed after being sent off for punching a Mont-de-Marson player in their Amlin Challenge Cup victory in France last night.

Hazell will face a disciplinary hearing over the incident and could be hit by a lengthy ban.

Gloucester are set to seek sanctions against at least one Mont-de-Marsan player.
