Friendly match: Wales women 15-0 Scotland women

Wales women proved too strong for Scotland as they won their first autumn international match in seven years 15-0 at Cardiff Arms Park.

A tight first half saw both sides come close to opening the scoring before captain Carys Phillips went over just before the interval for the hosts.

Wales dominated possession and after some fine play by their backs scored a second try through Charlie Murray.

Adi Taviner scored a third try to seal the win.

For Scotland, the match was a warm-up for their two-legged Women's Rugby World Cup qualifier against Spain next month.

Wales have a second autumn game in Cardiff when they play the UK Armed Forces on Friday, 11 November.
