Romanian supporters have come up with a novel way of boosting their team’s chances in the upcoming Russia-Romania rugby match – they’ve stolen the Russian team’s rugby boots!
BBC News reports:
“After training, the Russian players left their boots and part of their gear in the hotel’s reception,” the FRR (Romanian Rugby Federation) said in a statement.
“During a sudden power cut, nine pairs of boots, other types of sport shoes and some gear disappeared,” it said.
The Romanian Rugby Federation did come to their opponents aid though, by offering them free replacement boots.
And apparently, rumours that the Russian team (or nine members of the team, at least) had to practice in their socks are apparently unfounded.
