Wales labour to bonus-point win over Japan

Wales resumed their Nations Championship campaign with an unconvincing 28-21 bonus-point victory over Japan at the Principality Stadium. The home side secured the win but failed to dominate, leaving questions over their form despite the positive result. BBC Sport reported the match as Wales’ return to the tournament, with the bonus point helping their campaign progress even if the performance fell short of expectations. The match handed Wales a narrow three-point margin, and the bonus point will add to their competition tally as they move on to their next fixture.

Scotland lose Welsh and call up Porteous

Swansea City centre-back Stephen Welsh has withdrawn from the Scotland squad for their forthcoming Nations League double-header and has been replaced by Los Angeles' Ryan Porteous. The squad change was reported by BBC Sport. Porteous will join the group preparing for the two fixtures, stepping into the central-defensive spot vacated by Welsh. The switch alters selection options for Scotland ahead of the Nations League matches, giving the coaching staff an alternative in central defence and preserving squad depth for the back-to-back fixtures. No further details about Welsh’s withdrawal were provided in the report, and no additional changes to the squad were announced.
