73. Scotland work through the phases with a penalty in hand.

Like Wales earlier, they really didn’t try anything different to take advantage.

Ireland on the other hand, threw caution to the wind in the same position and scored a superb try as the acrobatics of Lowe kept it in play.

Different levels.
