In a thrilling Six Nations match in Rome, Italy secured a historic victory over Scotland with a final score of 31-29. This win marks Italy's first home victory in the Six Nations since 2013, ending an 11-year drought. Louis Lynagh, on his debut for Italy and the son of Wallabies great Michael Lynagh, scored a crucial try, contributing significantly to the team's success. The match was a rollercoaster, with Scotland initially leading 22-16 at halftime. However, Italy staged a remarkable second-half comeback to clinch the win. The victory not only signifies a monumental moment for Italian rugby but also ends Scotland's title hopes in the tournament.
