OTTAWA — Scotland fell behind 5-0 early but reeled off the next 31 points en route to a 73-12 win over Canada in a rugby test match Saturday.

The 21st-ranked Canadian men were 25-1 underdogs to beat a sixth-ranked Scottish side missing many of its big names.

Despite the lack of test experience and a wobbly, penalty-filled start, the quality of the touring Scots soon shone through as Canada’s early lead turned into a 24-5 deficit at the half. Scotland then won the second half by a 49-7 margin.
