As a result of the failure with Japanese national team, Georgia team lost 1,2 point and it gave the US the 16th place. The US lost with Tonga (13:22), their loss was very small but was enough to overcome Georgia.
Two weeks are left before draw of the World Cup and the last ranking is very important. Especially for 12 teams, which have already guaranteed participation at World Cup 2011, which is to be held in England.
There are a lot of test-matches left in this week and relevantly, there will be changes in ranking. On November 24 Georgian national team hosts Fiji and in case of winning Georgia will manage to get back its place.
