Typical Scotland totally dominant then mess up
England penalty, running an obstructive line.
Penalties starting to mount against Scotland
Good steal by Jonny Gray in the lineout
Scotland steals this vital lineout… kick out.
Halftime
Pity the first half didn’t go a bit longer there to reduce the time Russell is off the field in 2nd half, looks like he will miss about 7 and a half minutes

Disappointing score GBS. Which players have impressed you, for me for Scotland Redpath has been good, Maitland good especially chasing the high kicks, up front Matt Fagerson has been good showing may more physicality than I thought and the pick of all 6 loose forwards so far

The whole Scotland team played well…Harris, Redpath, Duhan van der Merwe, Matt Fagerson, Jonny Gray…
2nd Half ON!
Last time Scotland won at Twickenham was in 1983.
Scotland immediately on atatck in the 2nd Half
England scrum Free Kick… quick tap…
Scotland penalty, 1m inside the England half!!
Hogg instructed to kick to touch… excellent kick!!
5m Lineout!!
Waves of attack by Scotland…
Scotland penalty advantage…
4m Out… another advantage is played…
Penalty is given.
Finn Russell is back on and will take the shot…
England 6 / 11 Scotland
England building through the phases
Very impressed with Scotland tonight… so far.
Another good break by Russell then some kicks ends with net gain for Scotland with England lineout inside their half just beyond the 10m line
Super break by Maitland not sure about the kick by Russell there as Scotland had an overlap
Yet another kickable Scotland penalty…
Missed to the right
England 131 tackles made missed about 27, Scotland 47 tackles made
Poor miss kick maybe should have gone for touch to try get another penalty and maybe card
Fantastic, wonderful touchfinder by Stuart Hogg… massive!
5m Defensive lineout by England
Torpedo kick by Hogg gains a lot of ground must have been watching Morne Steyn last week
Big Maul by England then sub scrummie messes it up with his high kick his forwards wont be happy with him
Scotland penalty inside the England 22.. kicked into the corner… 5m lineout!!
