Leia Brebner-Holden: Scotland debut against Wales ‘unbelievable’ for scrum-half
Leia Brebner-Holden has described making her Scotland debut as “unbelievable” after earning her first international cap during Friday’s six-try victory over Wales.
The scrum-half ran on as a second-half replacement as Scotland eased to a 40-14 win at Hive Stadium.
“Most people think I’m not much of a crier, but I am,” Brebner-Holden told Scottish Rugby.
“This really means a lot to me. I have a lot of pride to put this shirt on and wear this cap for the first time.
“It was an absolutely unbelievable feeling. Playing in front of a home crowd for a first cap is so special and I can’t wait to hopefully get that opportunity again.”
The 22-year-old will be hoping to earn a second international cap next Saturday when Scotland return to Hive Stadium to take on Fiji. The match will be shown live on the BBC Sport website and app as well as iPlayer.
