Hosts Wales overcame Scotland 32-24 in the final Round 5 clash of the 2021 Six Nations Under-20s, despite Harri Deaves’ red card leaving them a man down for over half-an-hour.
Lock Christ Tshiunza notched the first of five tries in an exhilarating first half, with teammates Joe Hawkins and Cameron Jones, and Scotland’s Patrick Harrison and Michael Gray, also touching down.
