The candidates for the national team of Georgia got experience and that's the main point. Georgian Rugby fans were hoping for Cup Tbilisi, and in fact accoring to the rival, it was possible, but..

Iûnskih the tests never gets to collect all the best rugby players and this June was no exception. Moreover, the quantities produced have won the tournament hosts are having huge problems, and before the last match they barely coped with the task of filling the form. In my opinion, it would be better if we would focus on testing new rugby players and not on the result. But when a coach five days before the last game, said, "we wanted to win this tournament and it is a pity that did not take a bonus point, it will be very difficult for us now"-and then the box will display the debutants, it looks like something else.

Another thing, as played by newcomers. And they played that way in the course of the game hope to win the Cup, but they did not have enough experience and much more. When you lose your touch more often than win, meaningless and violate the same-in attack, and not think about correcting errors, then the chance of victory appears already the opponent.

The match against Africa was not the first in which we so often violated the rules and, most importantly, in decisive moments. The fact that the coach did not change anything in that respect, or he simply could not bring this to the guys ... Anyway, the main reason that team today failed to win the South Africans have become these errors and not updated.

No one was expecting that this lineup can compete against a team of South African President for the win, but the guys have played with such dedication, selflessness, that hope of winning appeared by itself.. After breaking the rules of our players in the Ruck, rival quickly opened an account with a free kick and soon scored a second penalty.

The situation for the hosts even more complicated after Mikautadze was removed for 10 minutes in a rough grip, but Georgia is also gradually aligned. Beka Tsiklauri, from a distance of 42 meters, scoring a free kick, and after several minutes for stopping an opponent (i.e., Kacharava) without the ball, the referee showed the yellow card to have the South African Player.

Then the game and well sharpened Kiasashvili moved the ball into touch in the 22-meter zone. Georgia won the lineout and forwards Pier, moving almost 20 yards, brought the ball.

As if here starting advantage emerge against Georgia, but a very weak game with its own did not give out the hosts to realize this advantage. Opponents and then the South Africans took advantage of a loophole in the protection of Georgia and placed again, winning a 13:16.

In the second half we were able to restore the balance (16:16), but the opponent was better organized and this eventually resulted in a try. The game is ended and 16:21.
