European Cup “doesn’t make sense anymore”, plague Urios after EPCR’s decision to place a draw

Matches on the second day of the European Rugby Cup, between France and the United Kingdom postponed due to health and travel constraints, will not be played again and will end in a draw, the EPCR announced on Tuesday. , “It completely distorts this competition. This competition, today it has no meaning, UBB manager Christoph Urios reacts Southwest , Between 0 points losers, those who don’t play and those who have 2 points… it sucks. I can’t do much about it but it distorts the competition. Already there are only four games. But hey, I don’t get angry about things I can’t do anything about.”

And to tell the Girondin technician: “On Monday morning, we have two new ones before the day begins, this Tuesday morning, two more before the day begins … They are next door, they must say to themselves: “Next is me”. It does not create an atmosphere of happiness. But I don’t think we’re ruining the European Cup, I don’t think so.” The UBB, defeated in the opening by the Englishmen of Leicester at Chabon-Delmas, should have gone to the lawns of the Welsh of Llanelli during the second day of the Champions Cup.

It remains to be seen whether the Girondins’ third match against the Welsh Scarlets will take place on Sunday. According to British media, the English club and Welsh franchise have announced their intention to refuse to come to France, refusing to comply with the health rule in force in France, which imposes a 48-hour isolation upon arrival from the United Kingdom. .
