Scotland head coach Scott Johnson admits that he is disappointed with his side's 27-17 defeat to Samoa.

Scotland head coach Scott Johnson has admitted that he is disappointed with his side's defeat to Samoa.

A 27-17 loss in Durban on Saturday saw the Scots' tour of South Africa get off to a bad start.

"I'm not embarrassed, that is not the right word, but I am disappointed by the fact that it was a Test match and you have to win the contact battles to win a Test. We didn't," Sky Sports News quotes Johnson as saying.

Scotland, who had never previously been beaten by Samoa, return to action on June 15 when they take on South Africa.
