Scotland v Italy: Six Nations 2025 – live

Six Nations updates, 2.15pm GMT kick-off at Murrayfield
France 43-0 Wales | Sign up for The Breakdown | Mail Lee

7 mins. There’s a sniff of territory for Italy as they have a lineout near the Scotland 22, but the Nicotera throws in with all the composure of a dislodged gyroscope. Dave Cherry is first to the bouncing ball and it’s moved left for Kinghorn to have a run into the opposition half.

4 mins. Italy inevitably drift offside under pressure from the Scottish attack and Russell puts it in the corner. Whenever you spurn points from the tee you’d better score a try and that exactly what happens after the ball is moved wide from the lineout before a short carry from the ruck has Darge forcing over the line.
