The Top 14 shock between Toulon and La Rochelle will take place this Sunday evening at the Mayol stadium, despite the orange vigilance emitted by Météo France in the Var. While the meeting between OM and PSG was postponed to Monday due to the risk of thunderstorms in the Bouches-du-Rhône, the Var authorities, in consultation with the National Rugby League and the RCT, judged the weather conditions sufficiently favorable to maintain the meeting: “The classico of rugby maintained. A situation point was carried out at 3 p.m. between the Var prefecture, the National Rugby League and the Toulon Rugby Club. At the end of the latter and after having collected the latest information from the forecasters, it was decided that the match would be well maintained. Despite some rainy passages announced, the forecasts in Toulon remain reassuring“Said the RCT on his social networks.
In a press release, the Toulon club specifies that a situation point was made in the middle of the afternoon with the prefecture. If some rains remain expected, the forecasts are deemed reassuring. The only changed modification: the fan zone of pre-match will not be open to the public. This should not appeal to Parisians.
