Repechage Tournament In Marseille To Decide Final Spot At 2019 RWC

The 20th and final qualifier spot at the 2019 Rugby World Cup will be decided in a repechage tournament that will be held at Stade Delort in Marseille, according to Sam Tremlett of RUGBY WORLD. Four teams will be featured in a round-robin event that will be played over three matchdays on Nov. 11, Nov. 17 and Nov. 23. Hong Kong and Canada are currently "guaranteed a spot." The third place will go to Germany. The fourth place will be decided when the Rugby Africa Gold Cup finishes. France was chosen to host the event after the "immense success" of the recent World Rugby U20 Championships (RUGBY WORLD, 7/13).
