Williams 'devastated' by Scots defeat

Scotland coach Matt Williams admitted he was “devastated” by today’s 20-14 RBS 6 Nations Championship defeat by Italy at the Stadio Flaminio – but still felt there were positives that could be taken from the match.

Memories of the Azzurri’s famous victory over the Scots in their first Six Nations outing in 2000 came flooding back following an untidy match which made up for its lack of quality with a heavy dose of high drama.
