Full time

It’s all over here at Scotstoun.

Substitution

Jonny Morris has come back on for Rudi Brown.

Try in the corner

It’s a try on the left for Telfer.

TMO

Ireland look to have scored another, but we’re checking for a foot in touch in the build up.

And it’s been chalked off.

Try Ireland

It’s a hat-trick for Quinn.

Try under the posts

Cawley gets to a loose ball first and scores.

Try Ireland

It’s a try for Sheahan on the left side.

And again!

Ireland come again, but Robbie Deans and Ruaraidh Hart cause a knock on in the tackle.

Further changes

Off come Harris McLeod and Dan King, for Ruaraidh Hart and Andy McLean.

Red card

Jake Parkinson has been red carded for a high tackle.

Duncan Munn has also gone off injured, and with no more substitutes available, Scotland are down to 13.

Two changes

Corey Tait and Craig Davidson come off for Elliot Young and Max Surry.

Good defence!

Ireland have had plenty of ball in the last few minutes, but Duncan Munn wins a crucial turnover on his own 5m line!

Scotland get the penalty and clear.

Scotland kick to the corner

A good period of play from Scotland, but the ball is lost in the breakdown.

Ireland kick, but their chasers are offside, and Scotland kick the resulting penalty to the 5m line.

Ireland hit back

A first score of the half for Ireland through Mangan.

Two more subs

Moby Ogunlaja and Logan Jarvie go off, and Robbie Deans and Ben Salmon come on.

COREYYYYYY!

Scotland are on the board!

After the maul doesn’t get there, a good carry from Luke Townsend gets Scotland in behind, and Corey Tait reacts quickly and goes over under the posts.

Townsend converts, his first points for Scotland U20.

Half time

The half comes to an end.

7th try at the whistle

With the last play of the half, McNabney goes over on the left.

Second half; Scotland change

Ireland get us back underway.

A half time change for Scotland, as Jonny Morris comes on to replace Sam Derrick.

Not straight

Scotland win a penalty from some solid counter rucking, and the ball is kicked to Ireland’s 22.

However, the throw in isn’t straight, so Ireland will put into the scrum.

Scotland change

A forced change for Scotland, as Finlay Burgess goes down injured.

Charlie Clare will take his place.

…and another one

Another penalty for Scotland, and we kick into Ireland’s 22.

Scotland penalty

Scotland are pinged for offside at kick off, but Ireland are then penalised themselves at a ruck.

Scotland kick to halfway.

Another Ireland penalty

Scotland put two phases together, but the jackaler wins the breakdown penalty and Ireland kick to touch.

Scotland kick into 22

That was better from Scotland.

We make some dents in the Irish defence, and win a penalty which is kicked into Ireland’s 22.

Ireland have a sixth

It’s a second for Quinn, who scores on the left.

Bonus point try

Ireland win the penalty at the scrum, and a quick tap leads to a try for Quinn.

Scotland scrum at halfway

Ireland win a penalty for offside and clear to halfway, but the lineout isn’t straight and Scotland will have the scrum.

Fifth score for Ireland

Devine splits the defence, and puts Gunne under the sticks.

Unlucky Scotland

Scotland put Ireland under pressure, and that looked like a good turnover from Liam McConnell.

However, the referee judges he was off his feet.

Third try

This time the maul works for Ireland, and Gus McCarthy goes over.

Scrum in midfield

Again, Ireland’s clearance kick leads to a knock on, this time from Duncan Munn.

Ireland will feed the scrum just inside Scotland’s half.

Scottish put-in

Ireland attack again, but good pressure at the ruck leads to a knock on from Gunne. Scotland will scrum down five metres from their line.

Good maul defence!

Scotland defend the maul brilliantly, and will put in to the scrum.

Ireland to the corner again

Scotland kick clear and their defence looks solid, but an offside is given in midfield and Ireland kick to the corner.

Ireland penalty

Scotland have a lineout at halfway, but are pinged for crossing as they set up a maul. Ireland kick to the edge of our 22.

A first scrum

Scotland attack well through Kerr Yule, but the ball is lost and Ireland kick clear.

The kick is dropped by Dan King, and Ireland will put into the scrum.

Second try for the visitors

Ireland have a second, as Barrett drives over from short range.

Having headed back into the sheds, the teams now re-emerge at a loud Scotstoun!

Time for the national anthems.

Ireland kick to the corner…

Ireland win a scrum penalty, and kick it out about 10 metres from the try line.

Kick off!

COME ON SCOTLAND!

Wrapped up!

It may be baltic in Glasgow, but that hasn’t stopped the fans heading to Scotstoun!

Ireland open the scoring

Ireland have penalty advantage, and a grubber through is gathered by Cooney. Osborne then scores in the right corner. Conversion is good.

18:52
