Ospreys Aim for European Semi-Final with Hardy's Return Against Lyon
Ospreys seek European semi-final as Kieran Hardy returns. Home advantage and a tough Lyon await.

Ospreys are gearing up for a crucial encounter in the European Challenge Cup. With head coach Mark Jones making minimal changes to the starting XV, the spotlight is on Kieran Hardy's return. The team is aware of the challenge Lyon poses, a dynamic side with athletic players capable of creating line break opportunities at any moment. Last year's quarter-final loss serves as motivation as they aim for a better outcome this time. The atmosphere at the Swansea.com Stadium is expected to be electric, providing a boost for the players. The winner of this match will progress to face either Racing 92 or Connacht in the semi-final, with the final slated for the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Friday, 23 May.
