Two minutes before halftime and Uruguay were awarded a penalty after Guram Gogichashvili was found to be offside in the tackle line but Berchesi ended up missing the penalty as halftime arrived.
Both teams enjoyed moments of dominance in the first half with Georgia bossing the first 20 minutes and Los Teros coming back in the second twenty.
As the second half kicked off, Georgia began in the same manner as they did the first half with another try. Otari Giorgadze put in a massive carry before Levan Chilachava drove the ball through in a crowd. Tedo Abzhandadze added the conversion for a score of 19-7 to Georgia.

54 minutes into the encounter and Georgia extended their lead as Jaba Bregvadze fell over the line. As two more points were added from the conversion, Georgia led 26-7.
58 minutes, the result seemed put beyond doubt as Giorgi Kveseladze picked up the ball and pushed it over.
77 minutes into the game and Uruguay had to finish the match a man down as Fecundo Gattas drove his shoulder into Shalva Sutiashvili's head as the second man in the tackle.
And so it finished at the Kumagaya stadium with Georgia clinching the victory, proving to be too much for Los Teros in this match up. Georgia face off against Fiji next and Uruguay have a clash with the Wallabies to prepare for.
