'One of the most exciting venues in the world': EPCR name '24 Euro finals venue
By PA
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will host next season’s finals of the Heineken Champions Cup and Challenge Cup.
The 62,850-capacity ground will stage the climax to 2023-24 European campaign on May 24 and May 25.
While the north London venue has previously held rugby games, such as Saracens’ recent win over Harlequins, it is the first time it has been used for continental action.
“It is quite simply one of the most exciting venues in the world and an incredibly appropriate stage for next year’s showpiece finals weekend,” said Dominic McKay, chairman of tournament organisers EPCR.
“EPCR has a proud history of taking its finals weekend to new cities and arenas with Tottenham Hotspur Stadium the latest in a list of cutting-edge venues.
“It is a sensational stadium with a burgeoning history of hosting rugby matches.”

Always reluctant to blame a coach when losses rack up, but Penney must go. The backline is dysfunctional and the coach must carry the can. No cohesion, no idea and in many cases, minimal skill. The trains out of Roma St depart faster than the ball from Crusaders’ set pieces. Wouldn’t be surprised if the forwards went on strike.
