@CI_IanMcKinnon: “Such a great game, exciting to the end. Would have liked the points but lots of positives- fighting to the end.”

@Donbob01: “Absolutely gutted. Dominated the game only to let it come down to a single red card that was iffy.”

@RedBasford: “Well played Scotland - an heroic performance with 14 players but congratulations to Wales.”

@Danthewhippet: "To be down to 14 men and only lose by a point is still a result.”

@marnifer_: “I need a heart monitor for watching the rugby i wanna know how high my heart rate gets.”

@IainBancarz: 2That was exhausting to watch, I can't imagine what it was like to play. Heartbreakingly close for Scotland. Congratulations to Wales.”

@RWDryburgh: “What an absolute gutter...it’s the hope that kills you. Should have put them away when we had the chance. Still lots of positives.”

@altamson: “To all the kids across the country who watched their first Scotland game last week and thought that euphoria would last forever... tricked you, welcome to a lifetime of heartache and glorious defeats.”

@DavidTannerTV: “That was truly horrible. What a kick in the teeth. I almost wish that I’d watched Catchphrase, instead.”

@paulpitt1: “What a game. Scotland might have lost but they never gave up.”

@jakeferg314: “Feel that Scotland deserved the win here. Red card ruined it and even with a man less we nearly won. Great game!”

@kirs10robertson: “The most exhilarating (albeit ultimately disappointing) 80 minutes of all lockdown. Gutted!”

@Ted_Jeffery: “Good effort, lads! 14 men for the last 30mins and you still managed to hold your ground. Although we lost, there is no doubt this Scotland team is the best I've seen in a long time.”
