39′. The last touch will be Scottish!
The Chardon XV is still within the Tongan 22m and will play its touch…
37′. Young and old are excited for rugby
36′. The Scots not far from the bonus test
Russell puts his arms out to give the ball to Van der Merwe but the ball ends up in touch 5m from the Tongan goal line. The Sea Eagles finally get a scrum.
35′. The Tongans are therefore at 14 against 15 for 10 minutes
34′. Yellow card for Taumoepeau
Taumoepeau hits Ritchie head-on in the face. The Tongan should receive the red card shortly…
33′. Very well done by Turner
Sutherland pushes into the Scottish 22m but the ball escapes him. Turner recovers it and tries a deflection to the right.

29′. SCOTTISH TEST! (17-10)
What a magnificent pass from Russell who launches Steyn. The Scot accelerates and will score a try in the corner!
28′. New Scottish pressure
The Chardon XV is already in the Scottish 22m after a successful throw-in and is pushing to score a 3rd try.

26′. Russell’s failed conversion (12-10)
25′. What a Scottish attempt! (12-10)
After several beautiful combinations, Van der Merwe is served by Kinghorn on the left side and goes to flatten quietly!
24′. Steyn does not pass
On a pass to Russell’s foot to the right, Steyn is taken head-on by Havili. Finally the referee whistles a Scottish forward and therefore a scrum for the Tongans.
22′. Successful transformation for Havili (7-10)
21′. THE TEST FOR THE TONGIANS (7-8)
What a Kata show! The Tongan winger gains meters with the ball. Then after a beautiful combination Pulu serves Piautau who gives an offering to Kata!
20′. And we resume on a scrum
19′. Small break for players who drink a little
18′. Lots of mistakes at the start of the match
Both teams made a lot of mistakes on the ground and continued scrums. The game is broken.
16′. The key is played too quickly by White and does nothing
15′. Russell already hot on the feet
The Scot found a nice touch in the 50-22. The Chardon XV is getting closer again…

13′. Good Scottish streak
Harris, Kinghorn and Steyn combine on the left side but they are finally stopped a few meters from the line by Fekitoa!
12′. Scrum in the Tongan 22m
The Tongans are looking pretty good in the scrum for the moment and are still giving themselves some breathing room.
9′. Penalty successful by Havili (7-3)
Easy for the Tongan, facing the posts less than 22m away.
8′. Pulu too greedy
Pulu tries a little low kick towards Taumoepeau but Scotland grabs the ball. The referee returns to the penalty and the Tongans will take the points.
6′. We never get tired of it!
5′. Successful transformation for Russell (7-0)
4′. Try for Scotland! (5-0)
And it’s a winning maul for Scotland! After a good touch, the Chardon XV carries the ball to the line then Turner flattens it!
3′. The Tongans come out quietly
On the scrum, Pulu finds a long touch at the foot. Tongans will be able to breathe.
2′. Kinghorn close to memorable action!
At more than 50m Kinghorn plays the ball with his feet and runs faster than everyone else. The ball hits the post and comes back at him but the Scot flattens it just before the line. So no testing!
1′. Let’s go to Nice!
The Tongans kick off the match!

“Tonga mania” in Croissy-sur-Seine
The city of Yvelines has been welcoming the team from this small Pacific archipelago since the start of the competition, and whatever its sporting result, the marriage is already “a great success” according to mayor Jean-Roger Davin, himself a rugby enthusiast. For more information, click here.

Cherry forfeits after falling down the stairs
Ironically (or not), the Scottish hooker was not injured during the defeat against South Africa (18-3) but by slipping on the stairs. Victim of a concussion, David Cherry was replaced in the group by Stuart McInally.
