- With their new stadium under construction, Wales home games were played in Wembley in 1999. England were hoping to land a Grand Slam in their own capital city but Scott Gibbs had other ideas and scored this legendary try. Neil Jenkins then nervelessly landed the extras.

And commentary by the greatest ever commentator,Bill McLaren
Since his passing, rugby commentary hasn't been the since. Greatly missed
Even he got confused... at 3.27 he thought Scotland were playing!
@@ianstewart9487 he knew at the back of his mind that Wales’ victory meant Scotland would win the final five nations tournament of all time…
Eddie Butler sadly passed away as well
I watched this in a pub in London with my mates as a cocky 20 something! We was laughing and cheering at half time! There was a couple of older Welsh guys from our rugby club having a quiet pint, at the final whistle they said nothing just a glance was enough. I learned a few lessons that day, respect and dignity in victory, and don’t count your chickens, especially when playing rugby against the Welsh! Deja fuckin vu!!!😆😂🤣
ha, great comment
I was in a bar in Fuengirola, Spain, where we were outnumbered in a pub called Alfies 20-1 by English lads, and my m8 had got so pissed the night before that he was sleeping on the beach. When we left, his 2 footprints were visible by sand. It was 2008. We won somehow and the English lads came over and shook our hands, we didn't gloat as we were looking deep in the souls of our players and thinking we might have a grand slam on the go here, and they did. Us Welsh are not all bad m8, and neither is the English boys. Proper sport is rugby.
I was there with my children. We were sitting in front where Scott scored. The trip up on the club bus, pre match entertainment, the game, after match celebrations, trip back. Unforgettable. Best rugby day ever.
"He's like the leader of a buffalo stampede".....Classic!
Scotland's hero that day. He won us the last Five Nations title!
Him and jenks boot 👍
The Great Scott!
Hell of a line by Gibbs love that lil skip to waste the last 2 at the end! My favourite Welsh try 🏴❤🏴❤🏴❤🏴
I remember watching this on a caravan site in West wales, I was crying when Neil Jenkins kicked that kick.
Glorious stuff. I lost my voice for a few days after all the shouting I did for this one. One of the best Welsh tries ever with the legendary Bill Mclaren commentating. Perfection. Sheer perfection. Let's hope us Welsh rebels can bring the Empire down again today.
Mister X yes we did and won all perfect !!
I remember this quite well, celebrating like with my dad at home after Gibbs' try. I also remember this took the smug look off Jeremy Guscott's half time face, priceless.
The best moment of all time at Wembley and in the history of the 5/6 nations.
One of the happiest days of my life -sitting behind the posts watching Scott Gibbs belting over the try line and then Jenkins with the conversion- I could watch this over and over- the sheer excitement that day was mind blowing and the journey back down the M4 with scarves and flags hanging out of car windows -a nice end to the journey home
“Scotland get the put in this time” - Bill knew at the back of his mind that Wales’ imminent victory would give Scotland the championship that year and couldn’t contain his excitement! What a legend.
Heard that also as a scot
Glad u explained that..But listening to the "Great man"u realise how surely he's missed these days.(and I think Eddie Butler does a god job)He had such a wonderful descriptive ability and turn of phrase!!

That, folks, was a Rugby League try...
"Scott [Quinnell] and I called a move we had never practised," says Gibbs. "We'd both returned from rugby league and during the week I had talked about a play we used at St Helens that the scrum-half Bobbie Goulding used a lot. The forwards would pack the midfield and he would run across, showing the ball to the opposition before slipping a short pass to someone bursting up.
"It was often devastating. I devised a version of our own when Scott [Quinnell] would get the ball, run across the field, taking defenders with him, and I would come charging through at an angle, take a short pass and blast through the defence. We talked about it but never rehearsed it. We were all knackered when it came to that lineout and I told Scott to call it."
When Gibbs received the ball he cut to the right before straightening up and riding Rodber's challenge, skipping over Neil Back's ankle tap and evading Matt Dawson's lunge. He was by now well inside England's 22, legs pumping. He swerved outside the England full-back, Matt Perry, and with an outrageous swing of the hips, veered right leaving the last line of defence, Steve Hanley, like a spinning top. "Everyone was drifting from left to right and I went against the grain." - From 'The Guardian', 13th March 2013.
One of the best tries I’ve ever seen 💯
Thats because you watch union and its all about kicking goals!!
Was at the match, sat on the halfway line. What a day, the bus ride home was great, we sang all the way home from Wembley.
This was the very first Five Nations tournament I watched. Was a delayed telecast if I remember right. Fell in love with Welsh rugby after this match.
The first five nations tournament you watched was the last five nations tournament ever? What a great shame!
Never tire of this try.
I was in tears. Iain Evans did that to me in 1993 as well.
This guy is my favourite player of all time with Adam jones a very close 2nd...the way gibbs carved through was class..... He saved my backside literally.... I was on tour with an English club... Only welsh man there 20 year's of age and the deal was if wales won I got free ale all night... But if we lost I was getting a Welsh flag up my ass.... I can never thank you enough gibbsy and jenks 👍
lol
great comment .. haha 😂
My most memorable try will never forget watching this!
Special shoutout for Rugby League for that play
That's right. Bobbie Goulding used it while Gibbs was at St. Helens.
Still brings a smile and a tear.I was there.
Brilliant the way 'Scotland' got the put in :-) 3:25
Bill McLaren = The voice of Rugby Football
1:50 all things considered, that is perhaps the best kick Neil Jenkins has done
3:24 SCOTLAND!? I think Mclaren has got a bit confused! 😅
just watching this now and I thought I heard the same thing. What a goon.
I was there!!!!!!
What a day!!!
one of best days of my life, when either us welsh or scottish got wooden spoon usually during 90s,wales won championship in 1994.
This won Scotland the championship. Return the favour Friday please guys.
Done.....you're welcome.
Legends
If I remember rightly, Clive Woodward was extremely cocky & arrogant before the start of this match, saying they’d crush the Welsh. Well the egg was on his face after Neil Jenkins kicked us to a 32-31 win 🤣🤣🤣
Thing is they where pumping wales for most of the match. Dallaglio said this was the match he learned the most from, take penalties and points instead of kicking for the corner to “ rub their noses in it”
Scott Gibbs what a line
This was the beginning of our happier times :)
We came to England they were hoping for the grand slam , England denied , It was our day Beating England in Cardiff is what you all ways want and it's hell of a buzz! But on that day in 1999 to beat England in England that something special
Woodward had already gone up to see that the England ribbons were on the trophy.
Neil Jenkins didn't miss many, what a final 10 minutes
At 3.26 of the Vid,did the Legendary Bill McClaren say "Scotland get the put in,".No matter he was the "main man"and it's always such an pleasure to hear his commentating and wonderful turn of phrase!..Like listening to some beautiful classical music!👍
Gibbs never bought a drink in Wales again!
Each in turn... What try of Gibbs!
It was the 5 Nations not the 6 Nations, Scotland are still the 5 Nations champions because of that try.
I was there, unbelievable day 🍻
Best birthday present EVER!!!!!
Bloody Brilliant Mark!
A home match for Wales, and on Welsh land.
I remember watching this first time around🤦♂️
Why isn't this in the " World's greatest tries"?
Magnificent
I was there...
Most emotional try ever for me
Up yours Claude!!
'Scotland get the put in this time' only mistake Bill ever made.
He was probably thinking " Scotland have just won the 5 nations " 😁lol
At 3.17 Dawson looks at the ref and boots the ball out of the scrum. What a cheat ☺
Did he say Scotland's try at around 40mins!!
5 Star ✴️✴️✴️✴️✴️ Try - conversation + commentary from MJK Wales
Tim Rodber blew the tackle.
Oh what a perfect day! Nothing better Than beating the Saxons in our ancient homeland...and denying them the Grand slam, Triple crown and Championship! 😉
Yma O Hyd!
You may have beaten us in 99 & 19 but we’re no giving back the big chunk of Britain we nicked 1500 years ago. That’s staying ours now!😂🤣😅well played!
Result rescinded. As it transpired not many of this team were welsh.
@@darthmong7196 like the current england team then. Wait a minute, none of the current England team are english. Grow up.
@@fazertace6837 Not one for real statistics are we? I mean you're referring to foreign born Wales are ahead by quite a bit. All of the current Engand/Wales foreign born are qualified unlike messrs Howarth Sinkinson and Charvis who basically lied to get in the team.
@@darthmong7196 What a sour loser.
I was there, age 10. Was in the loo taking a piss when this happened. fml. I thought there was an eathquake.
Well done New Zealand 🇳🇿 👏 👍
Did Bill say “Scotland get the put in”?
A young Keith from the Office @ 4:26
i was at the game - the ball comes out at 3:17 because Dawson flipped it out with his hand
Fking amazing
Was banned from the bar at a pub Oxford watching this - cheering too much !!!!
Scotland waited 22 years to pay us back
Scott quinnel
Wales are a truly great rugby nation.
The cnuts 😆
