Scotland (5) 26<\/p>\n

Scotland battled back to inflict a heart-breaking Six Nations defeat on Wales in a thrilling game in Cardiff.<\/p>\n
Gregor Townsend's side trailed 20-5 and 23-12 but rallied in the second half with a 74th minute try from replacement hooker George Turner sealing the victory.<\/p>\n
It was the first time Scotland had led in the game after earlier tries from wing Kyle Steyn, replacement Darcy Graham and fly-half Finn Russell, who finished with 11 points.<\/p>\n
The Graham try proved the turning point following some Russell magic and a Welsh defensive lapse from a restart.<\/p>\n
Wales had scored tries from prop Rhys Carre and Josh Adams with 10 points from fly-half Sam Costelow.<\/p>\n
Steve Tandy's side will be devastated after a much-improved performance but Wales' three-year Six Nations losing streak continues.<\/p>\n
Scotland will win a first Triple Crown since 1990 if they can beat Ireland in Dublin on 14 March.<\/p>\n
