Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>UEFA has released a statement confirming that Tottenham Hotspur\u2019s Europa Conference League group fixture against Rennes will not be played.<\/p>\n

The game was called off this week because of COVID-19 infections in Antonio Conte\u2019s squad.<\/p>\n

The European governing body explained that they tried to find a solution to reschedule the match in London.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, despite all efforts, a solution that could work for both clubs could not be found.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a consequence, the match can no longer be played and the matter will, therefore, be referred to the Uefa Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body for a decision to be taken in accordance with Annex J of the competition regulations,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n

Spurs said the game had been called off after they recorded 13 positive Coronavirus cases, involving eight players and the other staff.<\/p>\n

Rennes later criticized the decision, insisting it was taken unilaterally by the Premier League side and that they reserved the right to appeal to UEFA.<\/p>\n

Spurs were vying with Vitesse to finish as runners-up in Group G and secure a spot in a playoff round before the last 16. Rennes have already been confirmed as group winners.<\/p>\n
