Match Commentary

81'13-26 End of half
81'13-26 End of second half
80'Scotland win the lineout and it's one last throw of the dice for them to try and get a consolation try, but Max Evans receives a poor pass around his ankles and knocks it on to end the game. A comfortable win for Wales in the end to get their Grand Slam defence off to the best start. They took their foot off in the second half and some of the sloppy play towards the end will no doubt infuriate Gatland and Edwards, while Jones' goal kicking will no doubt come under scrutiny. Scotland will be heartened by their display at the end of the game and will be pleased with the try, but they will need to sort out the lack of invention and handling errors.
