Scotland 17-37 Italy: Mauro Bergamasco charges down Phil Godman's chip to put Italy ahead after just 19 seconds Scotland's horrible start continues when Andrea Scanavacca makes the most of an interception to quickly add a second The hosts then find themselves 21 points down after seven minutes when Kaine Robertson exploits another interception Rob Dewey nearly collides with the referee as he breaks the Italian defence but his try gives Scotland a glimmer of hope Scotland use kickable penalties to play for position and the tactic leaves the hosts still trailing 10-24 at the break The Azzurri sense their first away win in the Six Nations is on the cards and manage to snuff out Scotland's best efforts A breakaway try from reluctant goal kicker Chris Paterson rouses the home support and reduces the deficit to 17-24 But a try from Alessandro Troncon and two penalties from Scanavacca seal a historic Azzurri win Stunned Scotland fans vacate Murrayfield as Italy celebrate their first victory away from home in the Six Nations
