Dan Biggar: 'Ospreys deserve huge credit for Racing Metro draw'

After their 19-19 draw, Dan Biggar turns his attention to the return meeting against Racing Metro by admitting that it is "important" for Ospreys to secure victory.

Ospreys fly-half Dan Biggar has described next week's return meeting with Racing Metro in the European Rugby Champions Cup as being a 'must-win encounter'.

The Welsh outfit fought back from a 10-point deficit at half time to earn a 19-19 draw in yesterday's clash.

The sides meet once more in six days' time and Biggar knows the importance of the encounter.

"It's a huge effort to pick up two points," BBC Sport quotes him as saying. "It's huge credit for us for coming back with such an injury-hit squad against a powerhouse like Racing.

"I think overall it was probably a fair result. It makes next week even more important for both teams to win."

The dramatic draw leaves Ospreys three points behind Pool 5 leaders Racing and Northampton Saints.
