Scotland U20 went down to a 30-7 defeat to England in the Junior World Championship in Tokyo today.
Scotland's only try came from Glasgow Hawks Peter Jericevich.

Scotland coach Rob Moffat said: “We are always disappointed to lose a game and we didn’t seem to get a reward for the rugby we played in the first half. We are playing some good rugby at times, but with England they are clinical – when they look like they will score, they will score. At 20-0 at half time we didn’t think it was a true reflection of the game but we have got to realise we have to get points with the good play we have.”

"We need to show some character now, we still have three games left. I think the big thing about this is that you always want to win, but these are young players and what we want to see is if they can they move on, can they learn from the game tonight and play better on Saturday."
