Tottenham out of Europa Conference League after UEFA confirms forfeit for Rennes game

The postponed fixture against Rennes would be deemed a forfeited one, meaning that Spurs have been eliminated from the conference.

The game was supposed to be played on December 9 but was called off due to an outbreak of Covid-19 among the Spurs squad.

The fixture won't be re-arranged, and the result is that the team finishes third in Group G.

Spurs would have leapfrog second-place Vitesse Arnhem to reach the knockout stages of the competition if they had won.
