The EPCR has communicated the verdict of its Match Results Resolution Committee concerning the three Champions Cup matches canceled this weekend: Glasgow Warriors-Lyon, La Rochelle-Bath and Toulouse-Exeter.
“Since the Glasgow Warriors were unable to field a team due to the unavailability of many players placed in isolation, it was decided that the club of Lyon would be considered the winner and be awarded five classification points with a score of 28-0. "
“As Bath was unable to field a team due to the unavailability of many players in isolation, in addition to injuries to other members of its squad, it was decided that the club de La Rochelle would be considered the winner and would be awarded five classification points with a score of 28-0. "
“Since Exeter had recorded several positive cases of COVID-19 among its players and staff and was therefore unable to travel to France to comply with the recommendations of the health authorities, it was decided that the club of Toulouse would be considered the winner and would be awarded five classification points with a score of 28-0. "
“The EPCR would like to point out that fault was not considered a factor during the deliberations, and that the decisions of the committee were taken with a view to facilitating the completion of this Champions Cup season in unprecedented circumstances. ”
