Grenoble fight back for win over Rovigo

Grenoble overturned a seven-point half-time deficit to secure a 20-17 win over Rovigo in the European Rugby Challenge Cup this afternoon.

The home side failed to find the try line in the first half, but Davide Farolini was accurate with the kicking duties, adding 12 points from penalties before the break.

Laurent Bouchet scored a try either side of half time to keep the visitors in contention, leaving them just two points down early in the second half.

Robinson Caire briefly gave Grenoble the lead, but Emiliano Caffini dived over in the corner a few minutes later to restore Rovigo's lead.

Chris Farrell wrapped it up for Grenoble late on, though, forcing his way through a gap to edge the visitors back in front.

The win is Grenoble's second in the competition this season following their victory against the same opponents last weekend, while Rovido remain without a win.
