Giorgi Nemsadze: 'Georgia could beat Argentina'

Nemsadze: 'Georgia could beat Argentina'

Georgia lock Giorgi Nemsadze has insisted that his side could pick up their second win at the 2015 Rugby World Cup when they face Argentina later this week.

The team, who admitted that they were targeting two wins in their pool before the start of the tournament, beat Tonga 17-10 in their first match at Gloucester's Kingsholm Stadium on Saturday.

The 30-year-old told reporters: "We made over 200 tackles and Tonga made less than 50, so when it comes to attack we must change this. We must attack more and we will do that in the next match.

"Our goal here is to win two matches, against Tonga and Namibia, and now that we've won our first we will continue to play all our matches with the same intentions. So why not a victory against Argentina? Who knows what could happen."

Argentina, who finished third at the 2007 World Cup, were beaten by reigning champions New Zealand in their opening match at Wembley.
