Scotland Rugby Women’s side edged Wales 24-21 in a nail-biting encounter to open the 2025 Women's Six Nations Championship.
Carys Phillips had given Wales an early lead before Scotland took control, but they only had a Sarah Bonar try to show for their first-half efforts, with television match official (TMO) Ian Tempest having an exceptionally busy morning.
Emma Orr and Leah Bartlett scored as the hosts looked to break away in soggy conditions, but Abbie Fleming kept the Welsh in touch.
A late effort from Gwenllian Pyrs set up a grandstand finish, but the Scots held on for a third successive win over their fierce Celtic rivals.
To add to the drama, both number eights were sent off, Georgia Evans for two yellow cards, while Evie Gallagher's yellow card was upgraded to a red after a bunker review.
In another result, France beat Ireland 27-15.
England will play Italy at 3am tomorrow.
