Scotland bounced back from defeat to New Zealand with a 56-47 win over Wales at The Hydro in Glasgow. The hosts started brightly, racing into a 16-8 first quarter lead before Wales reduced the deficit to two goals in the second quarter. Scotland rallied to a 28-21 half-time lead.

Emma Barrie's dominant shooting saw Scotland take a ten-goal advantage into the final quarter. Niamh Mc Call, a teammate of nine Welsh players at Superleague side Dragons, caused constant problems with her distance shooting. Wales gave away too many contact penalties to cut into the lead.

Scotland held firm to secure their first win of the Commonwealth Games. They face 12th ranked Trinidad and Tobago next on Monday; Wales play the same opponents Tuesday seeking their first win. Scotland goal attack Niamh Mc Call said: "Ecstatic, this was one we were targeting... we are so happy that we won today."

Wales captain Bethan Dyke said: "Bitterly disappointed, that first quarter is where we let it go really... We've got a rest day tomorrow and we have to come back stronger."
