Stade Francais vs Munster called off

At least 129 people died as a result of a series of terror attacks carried out in the French capital last week, including three suicide bombers and a by-stander outside the Stade de France.

While the Paris-based Stade Francais were due to take on Munster at Stade Jean-Bouin, they say they are unwilling to stretch government and security personnel at a time of heightened tensions in the city.

The Top 14 club said in a statement on their website: "In light of recent and tragic events, Stade Francais Paris does not wish to overburden or complicate the work of the government and security forces by organising a sporting event to bring together 15,000 people in Stade Jean-Bouin.

"The club has therefore decided to postpone the meeting of Stade Francais Paris and Munster, initially scheduled to take place this Sunday, November 22, 2015 at 16:15.

"In consultation with the authorities, the EPCR (European Professional Club Rugby) and LNR (Ligue Nationale de Rugby), a postponement date will be announced shortly."
