Portugal earned a losing bonus point in their 33-28 loss to Spain on Sunday, keeping them in third place in the Rugby World Cup 2023 qualification table with 26 points but no games remaining.

Os Lobos lead Romania by three points, but the Oaks will represent Europe at the Final Qualification Tournament as the region’s third-placed team if they win their game in hand against the Netherlands on Saturday.

Romania will be heavy favorites to win in Amsterdam, since the Netherlands has lost all eight games since returning to this level of competition in 2021 after a 19-year absence, and have yet to defeat the Oaks in eight previous efforts.

Andy Robinson’s players will take tremendous heart from their effort against Georgia, even if they didn’t win, as they try to keep their Rugby World Cup dream alive. The game was close until the final whistle, with Romania coming up just short, 26-23.

In terms of the Rugby Europe Championship 2022, Spain’s victory means they may now claim their first title. Los Leones have 17 points and are ahead of four-time defending champions Georgia (15 points) before their match on March 20 at Tbilisi’s Dinamo Stadium.
