The Scottish came to the Flaminio Stadium with the intention to go home with the win after last week’s exploits against England at Murrayfield, but Andrea Marcato dropped a goal in the last minute, sending them home empty handed.

Sergio Parisse has been the best player on the pitch from my point of view and he has also been one of the best of the tournament

This victory rewarded us, because we played very well in the whole tournament, apart the second half against the Welsh team.

Now we should keep going like that. Mallett is the ideal coach for us, and I hope he will keep it this way. We are a young team who want learn and improve and our new coach knows already what we need to do.

Overall this tournament has been positive for us, and I’m sure the next we will be even better.
