Taufete’e named in USA side

Joe Taufete’e has been named in the starting line-up for USA as they face Scotland in Houston early on Sunday morning (kick-off 2am BST).

The front-rower took his try-scoring tally to 10 in 15 with a brace against Russia last week and will be hoping his side can claim a scalp against the sixth highest ranked team in World Rugby.

The match can be viewed live on BBC One Scotland and the BBC Sport website at 1.45am BST with a repeat at 10am.

The Eagles will then conclude their summer series against Canada next Saturday.
