Live: Scotland vs. England

The main event of Six Nations round three is today’s exciting Calcutta Cup match in Edinburgh. England travels north of the border in an attempt to snap a terrible recent streak against their archrival, whom they have only defeated three times in a row and have only defeated once since 2017.

The last time England lost four straight games against their oldest opponents was between 1970 and 1972, so Steve Borthwick will be keen to prevent that this afternoon. His World Cup semi-finalists, who are yet to settle into an attacking rhythm in this year’s championship, enter this rivalry game with a perfect record following their attritional victory against Wales and Italy.

Gregor Townsend’s team will undoubtedly believe that they should also be in the running for their first Grand Slam since 1990 after they just managed to stave off an incredible Welsh comeback during the first weekend of play. However, they were then denied a historic victory at home against France when a controversial last-gasp try was not awarded. Watch Scotland vs. England in the Six Nations live below, along with in-depth commentary from rugby writer Nick Purewal of Standard Sport at Murrayfield.

Nick Purewal’s match report from Murrayfield Scotland thrashed England 30-21 at Murrayfield after Duhan van der Merwe’s record-breaking Calcutta Cup demolition job left England’s newest rebuild in ruins.

In the process of crushing England, the formidable wing etched Scotland’s first-ever Calcutta Cup hat-trick into the annals of this momentous match.

With a try for the ages at Twickenham last year, the 6′ 4in giant terrified the shit out of England, batting away about seven potential tacklers in Scotland’s 29-23 victory.

However, a year later, the 17-stone behemoth managed to create yet another record-breaking highlight reel score.

When Van der Merwe easily ran inside his own half after taking Huw Jones’ ball and raced away from every white shirt on the field, he had already registered a peach of a try.

Van der Merwe stunned everyone in attendance, leaving Ben Earl trailing in his wake and Henry Slade diving through the air to taste his dust. Whichever side someone happens to be on, this was a moment to cherish.
