"The fixture had sensational tries and late drama, and played out on BBC Two. The only thing missing was the type of crowd that such a thriller deserved."
"The Principality is certainly a stage the team deserve to play on and the hope is bigger crowds will follow."
"Other national stadiums are being used across the tournament. Also in round one, England set a Women's Six Nations attendance record with 77,120 watching for their 33-12 victory over Ireland at Twickenham."
"Scotland Women's first standalone game at the venue and when the Scots travel to Dublin in the final round that will represent Ireland Women's first standalone game at the Aviva Stadium."
Wales and Scotland delivered an exciting match in the Women's Six Nations, with Scotland winning in dramatic fashion. The game, held at the Principality Stadium, attracted a record crowd of 10,569, but the atmosphere could have been enhanced at a larger venue. The Welsh Rugby Union aims to promote women's rugby by hosting games at the national stadium.
