The "lesser" teams have started very well against Scotland. These teams have every right to be there challenging the "establishment" and it is 4 against 4 with 2 stones each. It'll be interesting to see how the other teams approach their games against them.
First of all, Italy traded shot for shot with Scotland to tie the game 5-5 after the regulation 10 ends. In the extra end, Scotland with last stone were short, handing the Italians a win. Then, after a tight game for 7 ends, Japan scored 5 shots in the 8th by taking the Scots last stone out, prompting the concession from Scotland.
Winless Scotland are bottom of the table with Finland, who they play in the afternoon session and the result should be available late tonight. Another defeat would mean that their tournament would be virtually over before it began.
