With a set of armed concrete and a lot of experience, the highly motivated selection of Georgia has made it clear that it will not easily give up its dominance in the Six Nations B. Its rugby factory, tireless engine disel, has not overwhelmed Spain, but from the 20th minute he has put the game out of reach of the Santi Santos team.

The encounter was complicated to the Lions before beginning. A virus left the opening Blond and forced to line up as 10 to Brad Linklater, always committed, that had not entered the first call. Blows and injuries were also slowly diminishing the Spanish potential. The disadvantages of facing a physical power like 'the lelos'.

On the lawn, two teams that have made the touche and the maul their best weapon in attack. It didn't take the Georgians three minutes to prove it. His first platform, fierce, powerful, took a blow of punishment. The visitors insisted on going to the side again. The result: an untransformed trial (0-5). Not even three minutes took the local response. Also to the second side kick, maul and rehearsal of Marco Pinto. The challenge was raised (5-5).

Georgia proved that it is based on its forward, but has more arguments than forward. Dursima in the attack, rocky in the contacts. With clear balls, secured impact after impact, the media Lobhanidze Y Abhandadze They fed their line looking for the break. Lions, multiplying in defense, are forced to commit infractions. The first fruit for the visitors was a transformed blow (5-8); the second, a flat kick to the back of the defense that Alexander Todua wing turned into rehearsal (5-15).

After 20 minutes, the Georgians dominated the ball, the pace and the score, which extended to 5-18. The good feelings were his. As in other games, Spain tried to find its moment. Recover the ball, entered several times in the 22nd rival, linked phases, looked for the wings, repeated the charges, but did not succeed. The Georgians recovered with the foot all the meters that the lions' had advanced inch by inch. And on a touche, the Mamukashvili heeller found a 20-meter corridor towards his second rehearsal (5-23). Although the lion of the Lions had resisted the kilos of muscle of 'the lelos' with great mischief, Georgia underlined its hierarchy.

The last lease

Upon returning from the locker room, Spain began to resist. Hold the rush on your brand line for ten minutes in a row. In that strenuous defense he found mental oxygen to return to the game. He circulated the oval, always bright in his raids Charly malie, and sighted the opposite line at a few centimeters. Lions fight as equals in contact. Centimeter by centimeter, head to head, the Spanish forward sought, a matter of pride, the Georgian rehearsal. The gap does not appear; ten minutes of overwhelming dominance ended without points.

If Spain had a more open clash, it did not have the clear balls to practice it. The prize came, finally, in the last lease. In time, another maul espaol concluded with the mark of Vicente del Hoyo (10-23) and the reward of the partial victory in the second half.

The defeat against Georgia leaves the goal of conquering 'Six Nations B' away from Spain. The Santos group is now awaiting two difficult movements to Romanian Y Belgium, and a final home game against Portugal. Three shocks to ratify the growth of the last year and a half. The 'lions' have already built a solid front. They have work ahead, but they have a very appreciable base to continue building their game.
