Dan Biggar receives moving ovation for leading Wales to victory with one leg after wild scenes on final whistle

If anyone were in doubt of exactly what Wales' thrilling 20-17 Six Nations win over Scotland meant to their team and, in particular, captain Dan Biggar, they need only watch the reaction from the replacements bench at the final whistle.

Making his 100th Test appearance, the skipper played a major role in his side's first victory of the 2022 Six Nations. He scored a crucial drop goal at 70 minutes to give Wales a three-point cushion, before the hobbling fly-half eventually left the field just moments from time after struggling with a knee injury for much of the game.

Wales held firm in the face of 19 phases of Scottish attacking in the final play to claim a hugely important victory, causing the bench to explode with jubilance. Biggar can be seen fist-pumping and embracing Wyn Jones on the sidelines after the win was certified.
