Keira Bevin kicked a penalty five minutes after the fulltime siren to give Wales a narrow win over Scotland in the most thrilling match of the World Cup so far.
Megan Gaffney had scored the second of her two second-half tries in the 78th minute to draw Scotland level with Wales at 15-15 after they had trailed 15-5 at halftime.
But a Scotland error gave Bevin the last say in the match with a kick from close range and she nailed the penalty deep into injury time to spark a delirious celebration from her teammates.
Scotland were left to reflect on an opportunity that just got away. They haven't won against Wales in a Six Nations match since 2017, though all of their matches have been close. Wales won this year's contest 24-19.
"It's heartbreak," Scotland forward Rachel Malcolm said after the final whistle. "We got ourselves back into the game but not taking the points when we had them was critical."
