Greig Laidlaw's boot deadly as Scotland punish ill-disciplined Japan


Greig Laidlaw's boot deadly as Scotland punish ill-disciplined JapanJASON CAIRNDUFF/REUTERS Greig Laidlaw contributed 16 of Scotland's 26 points in a tough first test victory over Japan. Scotland 26 (Willem Nel try, penalty try; Greig Laidlaw 2 con, 4 pen) Japan 13 (Shota Horie try; Yuu Tamura con, 2 pen). Yet Japan's indiscipline enabled the visitors to bounce back, allowing the Scotland captain Laidlaw to punish the hosts with his boot. For Matsuda's infringement, referee Ben O'Keeffe awarded Scotland a penalty try, which Laidlaw converted to give his team a 16-10 half time lead. The visitors scored two tries - one a penalty try and the other from prop WP Nel - and were reliant on the unerring goalkicking boot of Greig Laidlaw, who made six out of six for 16 points.
