Friday’s match between the Argentina XV and the USA Selects in Montevideo has been cancelled. The match was to be part of the opening round of the Americas Pacific Challenge. A statement from USA Rugby cites the cause as “challenges experienced in transit.”
The result has been declared a draw with both teams receiving two competition points. They will continue to play their two remaining fixtures. The USA will play Brazil ‘A’ on Tuesday followed by Chile ‘A’ next Saturday. Argentina’s opponents will be Paraguay ‘A’ and hosts Uruguay ‘A’.
