Scotland joins Italy in six-nation tournament

Matches: 52-10

The score is heavy, but it can be misleading. Of course, the Scots were not completely overbearing in this meeting, which may seem unilateral.

Before Scotland get into their match.

By the half-hour mark, the Italians had managed to nearly level the playing field with Scotland, led by only 17–10, but already had three tries. But when Monty Iyen made a huge disruptive fight, saving his camp and his team in a strong opponent’s time, the Caledonians retaliated and scored in their 22 meters, scoring in numerical superiority (Mori in the 20th Yellow against) their center Jones (29th), a stunning fourth Test by break test (24-10).

From that moment on, the Italians, too undisciplined (yellow cards against Negri in 52nd and Ioane in 61st), were transfected, overwhelmed and to be honest outclasses, even evolving into thirteen for a minute , Unpublished Scottish winger van der Merwe narrowly missing the seventh try (62nd). However, the next opponent of France’s fifteenth Friday, Friday 26 March, was not irreplaceable: he profited proficiently for half an hour, owing to his numerical superiorities.

Player: Duhan van der Merwe is gaining momentum

Ball in Hand, Edinburgh’s left wing of South African descent was disastrous. After scoring the second of eight Scottish tries in the 14th minute, Duhan van der Merwe was impressive in raising the Italian defense over Hoove Jones (29th), and especially in the 32nd. He scored twice in the 71st, finishing the eighty meter block and could win the “Hat Trick” in the 62nd but was returned in goal to the Italian.
