As expected both Romania and Uruguay have progressed into the final decider for the 20th and last place at the World Cup in New Zealand next year.
Romania defeated Tunisia 56-13 at the Stadionul Gloria in Buzau, Romania, while Uruguay saw off Kazakhstan 44-7 at the Charrúa stadium in Montevideo to secure their places in the two-match play-off final, a home and away series in Montevideo and Bucharest scheduled for November 2010.
The two-leg clash between Los Teros and the Romanian “Oaks” is the final act of the RWC 2011 qualifying process, which commenced in the Grand Cayman in April 2008, with the winner, the 20th qualifier, joining Argentina, England, Scotland and Georgia in Pool B.
