Scots come out firing after the interval to leave Wales stunned

Tim Visser goes over for Scotland against Wales.

Scotland had hardly fired a shot in anger in a strangely- lifeless first half and the hope was they were keeping their powder dry for an explosive second 40.

And that proved to be the case as they finally got quick ball along the line and Visser – who had his best game for Scotland – stood up his defender and slipped Seymour in for the try.

Then Scotland patiently went through the phases and showed cool heads with a series of pick- and- drives sapping the Welsh defence until Russell span the ball out to Hogg who popped it on to Visser who rounded his man to score.

With the clock ticking down and the crowd sensing victory, Russell sealed it with a long- range penalty – he had a 100% day with the boot notching two conversions and four other penalties – taking the Scots more than two converted scores ahead.
