Scotland spoiled Alun Wyn Jones' world record-breaking day as they claimed a 14-10 Six Nations victory over Wales.

It was Scotland's first away win against Wales for 18 years.

Wales had wanted to mark Jones' 149th Test appearance in a manner that befitted their captain, who was surpassing Richie McCaw's world Test match appearance record.

But he could have a few complaints as they suffered a fifth successive defeat.

It is their worst run of results since 2016, and they were also consigned to just one victory in the entire Six Nations campaign, which Wales have not experienced for 13 years, to increase pressure on head coach Wayne Pivac.
