Temporada 2010/2011 Campeonato de Europa 2011 (12/02/2011) Georgia impone su físico ante España España ha caído hoy en Tiflis por un abultado 60 a 0 ante una selección georgiana que se sirvió de la potencia de sus hombres para abrir la brecha en el marcador. Georgia confirmó de esta manera su condición de mundialista y su puesto en el ranquing mundial. España, por su parte, no aprovechó las opciones de las que dispuso pese a que en los primeros 25 minutos de partido jugó en campo contrario. A partir del segundo ensayo local (12-0 m.25) Georgia encontró la vía para hacer daño a la defensa española que no conseguía frenar sus acometidas en primera instancia. En la segunda mitad la tónica del encuentro fue la misma y los Lelos se fueron hasta los 60 puntos. Ficha técnica: Georgia – España 12:00 h española Árbitro: G.

Tras el ensayo inicial de las isleñas la selcción española no se puso nerviosa, recuperó el balón tras el saque de centro y, con paciencia, elaboró una larga jugada para que Berta García ensayara casi bajo palos. Con el empate en el marcador Marina Bravo apareció como la más lista de la clase. La del CR Majadahonda que cerraba una touch a cinco metos, recogió el balón suelto y se fue a por el segundo ensayo de España. Con el 12 a 7 se llegó al descanso. En la reanudacón, España continuó dominando la posesión del oval ante un físico pero poco diciplinado equipo de Hawaii. Dos ensayos de las hermanas Pla cerraron la cuenta para España. Primero Bárbara, que tiró un gran contrapié ante dos rivales para ensayar a placer y Julia depués tras una intensa presión defensiva del equipo español. El siguiente encuentro del las leonas será ante Canada B (Maple Leafs) a las 21:20 hora española.

  • "Square" Guide Why the Lelos? 2
    The Lelos of Georgia "Square" Guide Why the Lelos? 2 Georgia National Rugby Side is nick-named the Lelos for a very obvious reason: Lelo-burti (Lelo-ball) is an ancient, free-for-all form of folk football, still alive in the Western part of the country and from time to time, being codyfied and supported by sports authorities Lelo has its roots in pagan times as the ball symbol- ized the Sun, one of the seven cesestial bodies wor- shipped throughout the Middle East Then the game which, by the way, still is a tested form of military training, was adopted by the Orthodox Church to such an extent that the Priest used to bless Shukhuti Temple Priest presents the ball at Easter 2011 a red - the most revered Christian colour - ball at Easter and throw it up to the players Village vied with village, Uppies (Zemourebi) with Downies (Kvemourebi, married men with betrotheds and bachelors, and sometimes teams were selected even on tribal lines, esp in a sea-side town of Poti The goal of the Lelo-burti was to bring the ball to a pre-marked place, that is Lelo. Hence, it is almost by default that both an in-goal area and a try in contemp- rorary Georgian are referred to as Lelo The folk game got its first - written by scholars - rules in 1930s and 40s. According to them, when played on a modern, 100m long pitch, Lelo is a13-a- side contest. The ball is too heavy to be thrown afar Carrying, passing and kicking are unlimited but as in Georgian wrestling, one can only tackle opposing ball- carrier above the waist.
