Referees for Nations Cup, Day 2

The referees manager for the IRB Nations Cup, David McHugh has announced the appointments for Round 2 of the Tournament to be played on Sunday, 15 June 2008.

All three matches have a great deal of interest but perhaps the one between Italy A and Emerging South Africa could have most bearing on the destiny of the Cup.

In Round 1, Italy A had a big win over Russia and Emerging South Africa ground out a win against Georgia.

The third unbeaten side is Romania which only just beat Uruguay who are taking part for the first time.

The three matches will be played in Bucharest on Stadionul Arcul de Triumf with its excellent playing surface.
