The hosts outscored their visitors two tries to one, but were left to rue missed kicking opportunities in a narrow 15-16 defeat. Blair Kinghorn scored a fine solo try for Scotland early in the second half, but crucially missed a last-minute penalty kick that would have snatched victory for his side.
