Comentario de partido

81'+19-15 End of second half
80'England get the ball out, Youngs passes back to George Ford and the fly-half boots the ball out to ensure Eddie Jones starts off with a win.
79'Billy Vunipola is a central figure once more as England keep possession and allow the clock to tick down. And they have a scrum.
78'England go through the phases looking to run the clock down as much as score. But they are into the Scotland 22.

77'Substitute on - Jamie George , Inglaterra

75'The lineout isn't the cleanest but they have possession and they are into England's half.
74'The cheers suddenly turn to cheers as Brown slices his clearance out on the full. Can Scotland take advantage of this platform?

72'Boos and jeers ring around Murrayfield after Farrell pushes Laidlaw into touch as the scrum-half attempts to let the ball bounce into touch. Farrell apologises, there are some handbags and Scotland have a penalty.

68'Laidlaw lines up a shot at goal, bang in front of the posts, and nails it. Scotland back within six points.

66'Substitute on - Duncan Taylor , Escocia
66'Player substituted - Tommy Seymour , Escocia

58'Substitute on - Gordon Reid , Escocia
58'Player substituted - Alasdair Dickinson , Escocia
57'Big moment for Scotland. Russell intercepts Youngs but with Hogg on his outside he kicks forward, and the ball goes out into touch on halfway. How costly could that prove?
56'England get the dive on from the lineout before Billy Vunipola feeds Youngs who finds Watson. The winger find a gap though, and the visitors go back to their forwards.
55'Penalty for England, which Farrell kicks to the corner.
55'Player substituted - Danny Care , Inglaterra

51'Farrell is uncharacteristically wayward with his conversion attempt, but England are now six points clear.
51'6-12 Try - Jack Nowell , Inglaterra

47'Substitute on - Courtney Lawes , Inglaterra
47'Player substituted - Joe Launchbury , Inglaterra
46'Again Vunipola is forced to pick up from the base of the scrum under pressure from Scotland. He does it well and Care launches a kick downfield. Scotland launch a counter through Hogg but England win a turnover and the fullback is called into action at the other end of the pitch.
45'Jonny Gray is unable to gather the lineout cleanly, knocks on and England have a scrum. It has been a scrappy evening in Edinburgh.
44'There is a brief break in play as Vunipola gets some strapping applied to his ankle. After which Russell gives Scotland a good attacking position.
43'Cole penalised at the breakdown.
42'Another wayward lineout from England but Vunipola mops up.
41'Scotland move through the phases and they edge towards the England line. But the visitors withstand the pressure and eventually win a penalty.
41'Eventually Russell drops back into the pocket but he is disgusted with his drop goal attempt. That brings an end to the first half, and although Scotland are behind Vern Cotter may not be too concerned given they trailed by seven at one stage.
41'+16-7 End of first half
41'+1Drop goal-missed

37'Laidlaw knocks it over from in front with ease and Scotland are just a point behind.
36'England are forced to withstand some pressure on a scrum inside their own 22. Vunipola initially does well to pick up off the base of the scrum but Scotland have the bit between their teeth and win a penalty.
35'It's Scotland's turn to drive towards the England line but after a good break from Seymour the winger knocks on for the second time in a matter of minutes.
34'Russell takes full advantage with a big boot towards the England 22.
33'Vunipola loses possession of the ball at the base of the scrum and as Laidlaw comes in to disrupt, Scotland win the penalty.
32'The ball is something of a hot potato at the moment. Scotland win a turnover and threaten a break with Seymour but England regain possession through Nowell, who loses it pretty quickly.

24'England win a penalty though and Farrell is able to clear downfield.
23'David Denton makes good ground over halfway for Scotland and after Laidlaw tidies up, the hosts start to build phases.
22'Just as England being to mount some more pressure in Scotland territory they are penalised for side entry at the breakdown.
21'Farrell pokes an awkward kick forward that deceives Hogg, but the fullback is able to clean up the danger.
20'England clear their lines and claim the lineout cleanly.
19'It's a bit far out for Laidlaw and the hosts instead look for touch. The lineout is won comfortably but after a smart break from Jonny Gray, Scotland lose momentum and England win a penalty.
18'Good work from Finn Russell and Matt Scott gives Scotland territory and although they are unable to get through the English defence, they win a penalty.
17'3-7 Penalty goal - Greig Laidlaw , Escocia
16'Laidlaw makes a sweet contact and Scotland are on the scoreboard.
15'Hogg counters well for Scotland, taking his team well into England's half. Robshaw is caught on the wrong side of a ruck and the hosts have a penalty...
15'0-7 Conversion - Owen Farrell , Inglaterra
14'Farrell has place kicking duties and fires the conversion through the posts.
14'0-5 Try - George Kruis , Inglaterra
13'Try for England! Vunipola picks off the bottom of the scrum and as the ball is recycled George Kruis spots a gap and barrels over the line for his first international try.

11'Drop goal-missed
10'George Ford sits back in the hole, but his drop goal attempt sails wide. He maybe should have done better there.

8'Ross Ford penalised for a crooked throw and England have a scrum well inside Scotland's 22'.

6'John Barclay gives away a soft penalty that allows England to kick downfield and set an attacking platform.
5'Greig Laidlaw boots downfield following the lineout and Joe Launchbury just about mops up the danger and as Mike Brown attempts to counter, it's all a bit scrappy.
4'England put on a squeeze but Scotland hold firm and win the penalty.
3'England finally get the ball out of the scrum but the attack mis-fires as Ford knocks on a pass from Jonathan Joseph. Scrum Scotland...
2'An early test for England's scrum as they win a set piece in Scottish territory. Swing Low rings around Murrayfield.
1'ESPN's Tom Hamilton has had his say on England's win:

It was far from pretty, expansive rugby was at a premium but England and Eddie Jones will care not a jot. Like four years ago, Jones gets his tenure off to a winning start under the lights at Murrayfield. England will be worried by their discipline and George Ford's form remains a concern but they will look to the brilliant Billy Vunipola and the performance of James Haskell and Owen Farrell as signs of optimism. Scotland were their own worst enemies with poor decision-making stunting attacks as the Calcutta Cup remains south of Hadrian's Wall for the eighth year running.
1'ESPN's Tom Hamilton is at Murrayfield, and has had this to say:

It has been a nervy first-half, bereft of attacking fluidity. The ball has spent most of its time in the air or in the tight quarters with the tale of the game largely spent within the forwards. Chris Robshaw and James Haskell have performed well for England but Scotland's John Hardie has had a superb 40 and if his team can control the ball better, they will score. George Kruis scored the opening try of the Eddie Jones era but this game has a long way to go poised at 7-6 to the visitors.
1'And we're underway! The Calcutta Cup starts with George Ford booming the kick off deep into Scotland territory.
1'Hello and welcome to ESPN's live coverage of the Six Nations clash between Scotland and England.

The game represents the start of Eddie Jones' England reign, with much expected from the former Australia and Japan coach. The Red Rose also have a new captain in the form of Dylan Hartley, who Jones believes can help the side rediscover its bite.

Scotland have not beaten their old rivals since 2008 but there is a sense of optimism around Vern Cotter's side following their run to the World Cup quarterfinals. Cotter will be hoping they can maintain the momentum that generated today.

Either way, though, it's set to be a cracker!
