Connacht v Ospreys postponed following Covid-19 case at Welsh club
The Round 8 Guinness PRO14 fixture between Connacht and Ospreys has been postponed.
 
The game was due to take place on Saturday, November 28 in Galway, however, one Ospreys player has returned a positive case of Covid-19 and others identified as close contacts are now isolating. Having considered all the available evidence, the PRO14 Rugby Medical Advisory Group has deemed that this fixture cannot go ahead.
 
Benetton Rugby, who played against Ospreys on Sunday, carried out routine squad testing this week and returned negative results all round.
 
PRO14 Rugby will examine potential dates in early 2021 to reschedule the game.
 
Everyone at Connacht wishes the Ospreys player a speedy recovery and we look forward to welcoming them to The Sportsground early next year.
