Tonga caused a massive upset in Aberdeen on Saturday, outscoring Scotland two tries to none to win 21-15 at Pittodrie.
Scotland led 6-3 at half-time but second-period tries from Tukulua Lokotui and Fetu Vainikolo saw the Pacific Islanders earn their first ever Test triumph on the European stage

Another miserable loss for Scotland means they are winless in November, leaving coach Andy Robinson's job hanging in the balance. They also finish the month outside the top eight seeds for the 2015 World Cup draw.

Despite seeing three player sent to the sin bin, Tonga ran out deserved winners, claiming another big scalp after beating France at last year's World Cup.
