Scotland carved out a piece of rugby history as they defeated Wales away from home in the Women’s Six Nations for the first time since 2004. In a dominant display they took back the bragging rights in the rivalry and it has been a long time coming, with Scotland last beating Wales in the competition in 2021.
A late missed conversion from Wales’s back-up kicker, Lleucu George – which would have levelled the scores – handed them the win. Not only did this mean a slice of Women’s Six Nations history but the victory was Scotland’s seventh in succession across all competitions. They have never won that many consecutive games before.
