The game in 60 seconds: A tale of two captains as Ireland edge Scotland

Stuart Hogg’s cock-up at a crucial moment was in stark contrast to Ireland’s new skipper Johnny Sexton, writes Simon Lewis.

Key Moment: Several in this game of nip and tuck as Ireland did their best to hang onto a narrow lead but Stuart Hogg’s botched grounding of a certain try in the corner after 50 minutes denied the Scots a valuable way back into this contest when they trailed 13-6 after the break. Hogg confessed it had been a "schoolboy error" and it was certainly not a good way to start your Test captaincy.

Talking Point: It was a tale of two captains as the aforementioned Hogg’s cock-up at a crucial moment was in stark contrast to Ireland’s new skipper Johnny Sexton who scored all his side’s points with the only try of the game, a conversion, and four penalties as he guided his side to victory.
