Spain decision delayed
Print Edition
Rugby Europe has again delayed its response to a request by Spain to replay the 2019 World Cup qualifying match it lost against Belgium, a game officiated by a Romanian with a result that benefited Romania. Victory for Spain last week would have given it an automatic place at the World Cup in Japan next year, but Belgium won 18-10 in Brussels to send Romania through instead. At the final whistle referee Vlad Iordachescu was surrounded by outraged Spanish players. The Spanish rugby federation, which had requested before the match that the trio of Romanian officials be switched, has now asked the match be replayed because of 19 decisions it believe were unfair to its team. But the Spanish federation said that Rugby Europe, whose president Octavian Morariu is also Romanian, had rescheduled a teleconference meeting of its board slated yesterday to next week, without specifying the new date or time of the meeting. Rugby Europe justified its third postponement in a week of the meeting by stressing the need to gather more information before taking a decision, the federation said.
