Italy 22-33 Scotland: Six Nations 2022 rugby updates Scotland notch bonus-point win in Rome despite valiant Italy display.

They were under the pump at scrum time, but Mathieu Raynal was content with a warning. It is an incredibly tough place to come, and when you come here, you have to play your best. We got four [six] scrum penalties and we didn’t get a yellow card. You are never going to come here and have an easy game. “We lost a few territory battles which hurt us a bit, and swung the momentum. We’d have snapped your hand off for five points before the game. We are disappointed we didn’t get more out of that.” We wanted to disrupt them and we did that. “I’m a bit disappointed the referee didn’t allow us to scrum fully. We can be proud of what we did.” There was about 15 to go, 15-all, we are controlling the game, and we just made a couple of mistakes that allowed them into the game. France top the standings on 18 points after winning their first four games.

Scotland player ratings: Scotland avoided any potential banana skin with a Six Nations bonus point victory in Rome...

Also added five tackles and the same number of carries. Kept quiet at the breakdown. Add to that 12 tackles in 60 minutes and the Glasgow man will be pleased with his return. Won two good turnovers as Italy attacked and threw himself into contact in close quarters. In for Duhan van der Merwe, made a solid defensive read on Bruno early before finding Harris with a pin-point kick. A good jackal penalty too. Unable to stop Bruno getting offload away for Italy’s first try but little he could do as Capuozzo stepped for his debut score. In attack, the captain showed his counter-attack threat in the build-up to Scotland’s opener and the bonus point score. 1. Pierre Schoeman – 7.5 10. Finn Russell – 7.5 14 Darcy Graham – 7.5 15. Stuart Hogg – 7.5

Italy v Scotland: mission accomplished in Rome (The Offside Line)

Scotland picked up a much needed win over Italy in Rome but will need to raise their game again for final Six Nations match against Ireland.

It wasn’t enough to salvage a bonus-point for the hosts but will have provided them with some sort of morale boost as they continue their battle to stay relevant in the Six Nations. Italy came back hard, and were given a helping hand by a loose pass from Russell which allowed Toa Halafihi to set top camp deep inside Scotland’s 22, but Price res cued the situation by reading opposite number Callum Braley’s pass for an interception of his own. When the scrum-half was eventually brought down 15 yards from glory, Graham appeared on the scene again to scoop up the ball and feed Finn Russell, who fired one of his trademark miss-three passes leftward for Sam Johnson to score in the corner.

Italy 22-33 Scotland: Six Nations – as it happened (The Guardian)

Scotland ran in five tries to secure a bonus-point win but didn't have things all their own way against an improved Italy side.

Italy win the possession at the lineout and are again on the attack in the Scotland 22 but precision at ruck continues to be an issue, allowing Matt Fagerson to win a turnover penalty. Italy run a nice pattern from the resulting scrum and make forty metres up the right touchline, but the Scottish drift defence is up to the job. The hooker pops inside to Price who is hauled down in the 22 before Russell flings a huge pass to the left for Johnson to score in the corner. A Garbisi chip over the top nearly causes some problems, but Scotland scramble and eventually force Garbisi to find a decent touch deep in the Scotland 22. On the right touchline, Graham pops to Turner who runs over a very weak tackle and is free and away on the fullback. The latest passive carry leads to penalty given away and Scotland will have a lineout in the Italian 22. It’s vital that the Azzuri score next, and will that be enough to give them a grab rail in the match? This out Scotland into the Italy half with Darge the latest to carry into the 22. They are up to the Italy 22 where Hogg joins the line and gets in a muddle with Steyn which sees the ball go forward. Ali Price has the ball and takes some sevens-style time to look for a gap and darts between the drifting Italian defenders before firing a bullet pass left to Hogg who runs in. The ball is sent right towards the wing for Capuozzo, who has been a livewire since his introduction, to grab it, step a bit and score his second. Lamaro has a big carry into the 22 and offloads to keep the attack going.
