Scotland are battling against Ireland and South Africa in Pool B.
Gregor Townsend’s Scotland know what they have to do to reach the quarter-finals
From Scotland’s perspective, they now know they will have to get a bonus-point win over Romania in Lille on Saturday and then ensure they defeat Ireland in Paris the following weekend with a bonus point or win by more than seven points to deny the Irish a losing bonus.Townsend is pleased that his team emerged from the past weekend with five points and still with a fighting chance of qualifying.
“If South Africa pick five points up against Tonga – which they might do, they might not – that would mean they will likely get to 15 points. “We know it’s going to be a difficult challenge against the number one team in the world. We’re going to have to do it the hard way to get out of this group but we believe in our players.”
