England 16-15 Scotland

England v Scotland Match Reports

England held off Scotland to reclaim the Calcutta Cup for the first time in five years with a narrow 16-15 victory at Twickenham. Scotland dominated the first half with a fast-paced attack that saw Ben White and Huw Jones both score tries. But the conversion kicks were missed and with Tommy Freeman scoring a try for England, the visitors held only a slender 10-7 lead at halftime despite their dominance. After the break, England took advantage of Scotland errors to build a 6-point lead with two penalty kicks from Marcus Smith and one long-range effort from Fin Smith. Duhan van der Merwe scored a late try for Scotland, but Finn Russell missed a third conversion attempt and England held on for a single-point victory. A selection of match reports is listed below:
