Ronan O'Gara's La Rochelle narrowly saw off Johann van Graan's Bath in the opening game of the Champions Cup. Bath launched a powerful second-half fightback, scoring two converted tries from 15 points adrift, but La Rochelle had just enough in the tank for a priceless away win. They roared clear through tries from flanker Oscar Jegou, prop Reda Wardi and scrum-half Tawera Kerr-Barlow, while fly-half Ihaia West kicked three conversions and a later penalty.

Despite swirling rain and a gusting wind, a compelling contest unfolded, although it ramps up pressure on Bath, despite a losing bonus-point, to potentially win at least two of their last three pool games as they chase a last-16 place. They tackle Benetton in Italy next, with Clermont Auvergne and Leinster looming as testing opponents in January. Bath launched their Champions Cup campaign without captain and England scrum-half Ben Spencer, who missed out due to a tight hamstring, so Louis Schreuder started and Tom Carr-Smith provided bench cover. Russell kicked Bath into a fifth-minute lead, but conditions – albeit at the very early stages of Storm Darragh – played their part as both sides found it tough going at times under the high ball. La Rochelle’s heavyweight pack soon warmed to the task, and relentless pressure close to Bath’s line resulted in an 18th-minute try for Jegou that West converted. The visitors had a collective power up-front, and they showcased it in all its glory through a long-range lineout drive that Bath could not stop. Wardi claimed the touchdown, with West adding the extras, and although Russell kicked a second penalty, La Rochelle were immediately back on the attack. Another lineout gave them a strong foundation five metres out, but this time they did not have to keep it tight as Kerr-Barlow darted through a huge gap for try number three, with West’s conversion making it 21-6. Bath could not make inroads before the break, and they had a second-half mountain to climb against a team with a proven pedigree in the competition. But the response was impressive, and Bath reduced their deficit midway through the third quarter as Dunn touched down following a driven lineout, before Russell judged his touchline conversion brilliantly to leave his team eight points adrift. La Rochelle were rattled, and Bath struck again five minutes later after Kerr-Barlow failed to ground a kick behind his own line, with a charging Roux capitalising and Russell converting. West eased La Rochelle nerves through a penalty on the hour-mark, yet a gripping final quarter was in store after Bath had clawed their way back to 24-20 behind. La Rochelle called on significant international experience to close out the contest, thwarting Bath’s best efforts and give themselves a flying start in their bid for a third Champions Cup crown that would put them level with Saracens and Toulon in terms of tournament victories. “It is an 80-minute game. We got ourselves back into at 21-20, and we could not convert a couple of opportunities in the last few moments,” Van Graan said afterwards. “It was a real battle, and we are disappointed. The margins are so small. “We execute one more opportunity, we win by a point and we are all happy I thought we competed, the scrum was a real battle, the maul, the kicking game – both sides got some aerial dominance. “I am content with the fact we played our game, we mixed it with one of the heavier teams in world rugby.” Get the latest sports headlines straight to your inbox by signing up for free email alerts .“I like players with character” – Ruben Amorim names the Man Utd legend he’d love at his disposal now

Lucknow, Nov 21 (PTI) Opposition parties in Uttar Pradesh blamed the BJP for the violence in Sambhal, alleging the survey team was sent to the mosque by the party to nurture its "politics of hatred". The BJP, in turn, alleged that the INDIA alliance had been trying to create unrest since the Lok Sabha polls. It said that those who do not agree with judicial orders should take legal recourse. "Nobody has any right to break the law. If a court has passed an order, it will be implemented. The judicial process is available for those who want the order amended," party spokesperson Nalin Kohli said. Another BJP spokesperson Ajay Alok blamed what he called the "ghamandia alliance" (an alliance full of arrogance), a term BJP leaders have often used for the INDIA bloc, for the violence. Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav lashed out at the BJP, saying its government and the administration orchestrated the violence "to divert attention from electoral malpractice". "A survey team was deliberately sent in the morning to disrupt discussions about the election. The intention was to create chaos so that no debate on election issues could happen," he said at a press conference in Lucknow. UP Congress chief Ajay Rai said the incidents of violence were increasing day by day in the state under the Yogi Adityanath government. "When the Chief Minister of the state himself gives statements like 'batenge toh katenge,' then how can there be an atmosphere of peace in the state? This is a completely planned incident," Rai in a statement said. The UP unit of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) called the Sambhal violence a planned conspiracy. Its secretary Heeralal Yadav questioned the hurry behind the survey of the mosque in contention. He accused the BJP of fomenting unrest in the state "in the name of temple and mosque" and appealed to the public to maintain peace. The CPI (Marxist-Leninist) also attacked the BJP, blaming it for the Sunday violence in which three people were killed. Sudhakar Yadav, the party's state secretary, said BJP, emboldened by its recent wins, was fuelling polarisation of communities and wanted to throw the state into the fire of communalism. Tearing the fabric of peace, and polarising communities was all in a good day's work for the "saffron brigade," he alleged. Three people were killed and scores of others, including around 20 security personnel, were injured as protesters opposing a court-ordered survey of a Mughal-era mosque here clashed with police on Sunday. Protesters torched vehicles and pelted stones at the police, who used tear gas and batons to disperse the mob. "Shots were fired by the miscreants ... the PRO of the superintendent of police suffered a gunshot to the leg, the police circle officer was hit by pellets and 15 to 20 security personnel were injured in the violence," Moradabad Divisional Commissioner Aunjaneya Kumar Singh said. He said that a constable also suffered a serious head injury, while the deputy collector fractured his leg. Internet services have been suspended in Sambhal tehsil for 24 hours and the district administration declared a holiday on November 25 for all students up to Class 12. Images, purported to be from the spot shared on social media, showed mobs pelting stones at cops from atop buildings and in front of the Shahi Jama Masjid. Later, police were purportedly seen cornering and hitting people as they tried to disperse a large crowd in a narrow alleyway. A lane was shown in a video strewn with a scores of slippers, bricks, and stones. In another purported clip, some policemen in riot gear were seen firing gunshots in a street, while flames leapt and smoke billowed into the air in the background. Superintendent of Police Krishan Kumar urged stone-pelters not to indulge in violence. "Do not spoil your future for these politicians," he is heard saying through his megaphone in one of the videos. Tension had been brewing in Sambhal since Tuesday when the Jama Masjid was surveyed on the orders of a local court following a petition that claimed that a Harihar temple stood at the site.
