Romania’s national rugby team took on Italy in a test match this past
Sunday in Bucharest. Romanians were buoyant for the early start of the game. Romania’
s Florin Vlaicu even successfully scored from two penalty kicks. However, the Oak
Leaf Knights ran out of steam, physically, were overpowered, and the Italians emerged
in control of the game completely. The latter team eventually trounced Romania,
45 to 13. In the coming preparation stage, the Romanian national squad will travel to South America, with two test matches on schedule. Romania faces Uruguay in Montevideo, on July 10 and 17.

Romanian
heavyweight boxer Cristian Ciocan this past Saturday wasted the opportunity to

knock-out. 34-year-old Ciocan is a German resident and competes as Christian
Hammer. It was Cristian Ciocan’s 10th defeat as a pro. The Romanian-born boxer’s
