The game had opened in torrents of rain with both sides handling poorly and it was a solitary score, a Giovanno Montemauri penalty, that sent the sides in at 0-3 at half-time.

Zebre had missed the difficult first conversion but slotting the second gave themselves a 15-0 lead with half-an-hour left on the clock. Determined defending drove the Scottish back to the 22m from where they opted to just kick the ball out of play.
