Scotland vs England LIVE: Six Nations rugby score and result from Calcutta Cup today

England draw penalty advantage at the lineout and try to suck bodies in to the maul.

A purposeful burst! Henry Slade arrives beautifully on Ben Youngs’ shoulder as the scrum-half holds the defensive line, and Darcy Graham is penalised for going beyond the ball and not supporting his body-weight as he tries to contest at the ruck.

England clear downfield and Darcy Graham sets off on a weaving return, hurrying about like a wind-up toy knocked off course. He runs into teammate Grant Gilchrist, who is somewhat unfortunate to be penalised for crossing - I’m not quite sure Graham quite knew where he was going, but the lock’s midriff was presumably not his intended destination.

Just the fourth scrum of the afternoon and instability again on the first attempt to get both eights to push legally. Ben O’Keeffe resets and then calls England for an eary drive.

Finn Russell biffs a grubber on the angle out of play just inside the England 22.

An error from Steward! The simplest of takes under no pressure and the England full-back spills it, perhaps guilty of considering his next move before the ball was safely in his grasp.

Ali Price takes his time over a box kick and hoists it high, with Freddie Steward rushing forward to take with trademark aplomb and calm. Max Malisn is caught behind the gainline but pivots nicely from a tackle, though not before the England momentum is stalled. Ben Youngs also sends something skywards - Stuart Hogg does the catching equally well.

The second half is underway.

Finn Russell has a last chat with Gregor Townsend in the sheds. Scotland have looked dangerous whenever they’ve had the ball, and lead despite having spent just seven seconds in the England 22 in the first half. What does the second 40 minutes have in store? There are no changes at the interval.

An odd, if incredibly intriguing half, largely controlled by England, who have played some nice stuff but have perhaps been guilty of kicking slightly too often. Scotland have stood up well defensively with Steve Tandy’s unit again impressing, meaning that even with only about a quarter of territory they lead. Ben White’s score during his brief stint on the pitch while Ali Price was assessed was a good’un, with Scotland their attacking potency.

The question will be if Scotland’s heavy defensive workrate will fatigue them significantly in the second half. Their linespeed and collision intensity have been really, really strong, but England will be confident that they can capitalise if the hosts drop off.
