has to be a try. Also looks to me like it was a deliberate hit of the ball by Italy but is it ok if it goes backward?
2 touchlines close to each other with the football lines still on looks like touch judge called it out on the inside line
Changes galore on for Italy… whole new front row…
Johan Meyer of Italy is a big unit, nice and abrasive too.
Did Hogg carry it over??
Yes…
5m Italy scrum…
Scotland offside in front of the posts… penalty after some advantage was played.
Italy 17 / 14 Scotland
Am surprised they are going for goal surely set up maul from 5m out and put pressure on Scotland if don’t score a try could earn penalty and the way things have gone a yellow card for Scotland

Think it was because they were level on 14 all… take the sure points, to take the lead.
Yes good penalty earned by Watson who has been so much better in the second half
WP Nel on for Scotland…
66th min WP Mel on for Fagerson
Tommy Allan on for Italy and Ferrari too.

argh autocorrect should be Nel
Scotland easy penalty… not kicked at goal, kicked to the corner.
Also Kinghorn on for Graham on right wing looked like he picked up an injury
Try Scotland, George Turner!
Try Cummings!
No, it was Scott Cummings!
An Italian stretchered off…
not nice to see Polledri stretchered off, replaced by Mbanda
Italy 17 / 21 Scotland
10 Minutes remaining…
Would be interesting to see who Italy attack coach is as they are getting their backs a lot of space by passing behind blockers a lot of the time very effectively
Sam Hildago-Clyne on for Price his first game for Scotland in about 2 years
Scotland penalty near halfway… kicked to touch for the attacking lineout.
4 double winning Exeter Chiefs players on the field now for Scotland. Hildago-Clyne, Gray, Skinner and Hogg.
Advantage is played after a good maul… then it is given.
