Rampant Scotland ran in 12 tries to thrash Romania 84-0 and set up a potential Pool B shootout with Ireland at the Rugby World Cup.

Darcy Graham scored a hat-trick of first-half tries, with Hamish Watson, Ali Price and Matt Fagerson also crossing before the break.

Chris Harris, Ollie Smith, Ben Healy, debutant Johnny Matthews, Rory Darge and Graham added scores in the second period, with Healy and George Horne maintaining a perfect record with the boot.

The Scots ended five points shy of their biggest ever World Cup win over Ivory Coast in 1995.

With South Africa strong favourites to beat Tonga with a bonus point on Sunday, Scotland needed to take the maximum five points in Lille to give themselves the best chance of reaching the knockout stages.

Gregor Townsend's side are likely to need to beat Ireland and deny Andy Farrell's side a bonus point in Paris next Saturday.
