STEYN FINISHES THE SCORING!

One final score! Knock on from Canada, it's picked up and two phases later Healy gets halfway through a tackle and offloads to Steyn who charges over in acres of space. Healy converts to make the final score Canada 12-73 Scotland.

Scotland lineout

As we try to exit the ball goes into touch via a Canadian player's back. Our lineout just outside our 22.

We steal it back and then Canada are pinged for an illegal strip of the ball on the floor.

Knock on

Healy chips over the top, and Steyn tries to grab it out of the sky but can only knock it forward. Canada scrum around 35m from our line.

67

Held up!

An excellent volley from Reed in midfield, and then Steyn hacks further on. He eventually gathers the ball over the line, but three defenders get to him and hold him up. Canadian goalline dropout.

69

DOBIE!!!!

Plenty of first Scotland tries tonight, and now it's Jamie Dobie's turn! Healy took the ball and found Reed running the inside line, and after breaking the line he found Dobie on his inside with a simple finish. Healy converts. Canada 12-59 Scotland

DESERVED HARRY PAT SCORE!!!

What a try! Ewan Johnson with an excellent steal on our 22. We then break down the right through Richardson and Dobie.

Canada penalty

As we attempt to run from deep again, we're penalised this time and Canada kick to the right corner.

54

REED AGAIN!!!

Straight from kick off! We break from our own 22 down the right through Richardson, who, for a hooker, is one pacey man. Then it's over to the left where Reed is in space, and steps round the last defender to finish in the corner. Unbelievable conversion from Thompson too! Canada 12-45 Scotland

52

WARR BLIMEY!!!

Harry Paterson is not bad at rugby. He breaks through on the right, and running the classic scrum half support line is Warr to score his second. Thompson converts. Canada 12-38 Scotland

Canada scrum

...now a Scotland scrum

A few phases from Canada in midfield without really threatening, and then a spill on our left wing gives us the scrum.

34

Try saved!

Canada get over the line, but Scotland steal the ball as a group of players hit the deck! Elliot Millar Mills comes away with it, but is heaved down over the try line. It's a Scotland goalline dropout.

30

REED FOR SPEED!!!

It's a debut try for Arron Reed! We break left from the scrum through Paterson, then go all the way to the right wing where Richardson makes 15 metres. Then it's all the way back to the left where Paterson is through again, and a fabulous infield offload finds the Sale Sharks man to score. Conversion is wide. Canada 5-26 Scotland

Goal line dropout

A short spell of kick tennis before Thompson's kick goes over Canada's try line and they touch it down. They'll exit from there.

19

Temporary sub

Harry Paterson is going to get a facial injury examined. Kyle Steyn comes on. Meanwhile, we're penalised at the scrum and Canada hoof the pen into our 22. Before anything else though, we'll have a water break.

19

Knock on

More good phase play and momentum building from Scotland, but there's a knock on and Canada get the scrum.

13

BAYLISS!!!!

Scotland hit back quickly. The initial break came on halfway as Gus Warr combined with Paterson. It looked like the attack was stalling, but Paterson then broke through again and found Josh Bayliss in space to finish the move off. Thompson's kick sails through. Canada 5-7 Scotland

16

Richardson's turn!!!

From the kick off, Scotland kick back and then Canada kick too long and dead. From the resulting scrum, Ross Thompson charged through and found Dylan Richardson for his first Scotland try. Thompson converts. Canada 5-14 Scotland

Another Canada pen

We play the 9 before the ball comes out of the maul. Canada kick into the right corner.
