Scotland survived a late comeback in Wales to secure a 20-18 win, their first Women’s Six Nations victory on Welsh soil in 20 years.
In the 79th minute, after Alex Callender’s try, Lleucu George missed a conversion that would have secured a draw.
Scotland led thanks to tries from Coreen Grant and Rhona Lloyd, while Sisilia Tuipulotu crossed to get Wales back into the game.
