Scotland 42 Japan 17: Scots seal win after second-half flurry
ByThe Courier Reporter
Tommy Seymour grabbed two tries on his home debut as Scotland saw off the challenge of improving Japan following a flurry of second-half action.
The Glasgow wing’s try proved the difference in an uninspiring first half and he crossed again in the 55th minute after the second of Kenki Fukuoka’s replies.
Greig Laidlaw had gone over the line after the first of the Japan wing’s tries to take him past the 200-point mark in his 22nd Test and Alasdair Dickinson, Duncan Weir and Sean Lamont, who had a first-half try disallowed, all crossed when Japan were down to 14 men.
