Challenge Cup Highlights: Edinburgh Rugby v La Rochelle
- 1419
Full-time at Murrayfield and it's the visitors, La Rochelle, who edge Edinburgh with a 10-point victory. The French side were boosted by a fantastic start, following two tries from hooker, Jeremie Maurouard, provided an early 14-point cushion. Edinburgh managed to pull one back through Burleigh, before being hit with a killer blow from 19-yr old livewire, Retiere, who ran half the length of the pitch to touch down. La Rochelle managed to push the gap out to 14 points by half-time, but midway through the second half, were forced to defend against spirited Edinburgh comeback with 14 men. But in the end, the clinical kicking from James out of hand and from the tee was enough to bridge a gap too big to close, and La Rochelle advance into the semi-finals!
