In a challenging Six Nations encounter, Scotland suffered a narrow 18-15 defeat against Italy in Rome's torrential rain on Saturday. The loss, described as a significant blow by Coach Gregor Townsend, has made their championship quest more difficult.
After a sluggish start and multiple missed opportunities, the team struggled to build a solid lead, conceding several breakaway tries. Townsend, nine years into his coaching role, has yet to secure a championship title and faces mounting criticism.
Scotland now prepare to face England at Murrayfield, with Townsend and Captain Sione Tuipulotu urging their side to improve their game strategy under pressure and take responsibility for their performance.
