Emotional win for Georgia

GEORGIA scored a last-gasp goal to claim a shock victory over Wales at the Liberty Stadium last night to prompt exuberant celebrations from their ex-patriot fans.

Wales led in the first period through a long-range Jason Koumas strike, and should have been further ahead at the break.

But Georgia’s desire for an emotional victory, given the nature of their war-torn country, was greater than Wales’, and they equalised through Levan Kenia and then grabbed an injury-time winner through substitute Beka Gotsiridze.
