(Reuters) - Fiji held off a late Scotland fightback to secure a 27-22 victory in a June international test at Suva on Saturday, bringing the tourists down to earth after their upset of Australia last week.

It was a second victory over European opposition in a week for the Fijians after they edged Italy last Saturday and came courtesy of tries from Peceli Yato and Henry Seniloli as well as five penalties and a conversion from flyhalf Ben Volavola.
