The sun shone down on Hive Stadium on Sunday afternoon as Scotland hosted Italy in the third round of the Women’s Six Nations campaign. Scotland were awarded the first penalty of the game thanks to a jackal from Evie Gallagher just outside their own 22. Helen Nelson cleared it to touch to gain territory. A scrum was awarded to Scotland in the 8th minute following an Italian knock-on, but the home side struggled to break through the solid Italian defence.
