Today’s result saw the Georgians win all of their five games in this championship.

The winner of this match, apart from being this year's European Nations Cup champion, gained the Antim Cup. This cup is annually contested between the rugby union teams of Romania and Georgia. It is named after the Romanian Orthodox Metropolitan Anthim the Iberian, who came from Georgia.

The Antim Cup is contested each time Georgia and Romania meet in a senior international match other than World Cup matches or qualifiers. The holder retains the cup unless the challenger wins the match in normal time.

The current holder was Georgia, who defeated Romania 22-9 on March 15, 2014 in Tbilisi.
