Tim Visser: Scored two tries

Tim Visser: Scored two tries

Two tries from Tim Visser helped Scotland hold off a second-half fightback from Fiji for a hard-fought 37-25 victory in their Test in Lautoka.

Scotland led 24-11 at half-time thanks to tries from Greig Laidlaw and Visser which sandwiched a penalty try.

Fiji, for whom Josefa Domolailai crossed in the first period, fought back after the break and got scores from Waisea Nayacalevu and Metuisela Talebula, which put them within two points at 27-25 with 12 minutes to play.

But Visser claimed his second try eight minutes from the end and Laidlaw converted, taking his personal tally to 22, to settle Scotland nerves.
