Jamie Dobie and Kyle Rowe both scored two tries as Scotland beat Chile for the third comprehensive victory of their summer tour.

Josh Bayliss was first to touch down for Gregor Townsend's side, while Matt Currie, Dylan Richardson and Kyle Steyn crossed in the second half.

Chile proved feistier opponents than Canada and the USA and the Scots took a while to get going.

However, it was one-way traffic for most of the second half at the national stadium in Santiago.

The opening 20 minutes were scrappy before Bayliss plunged over from close range, while Santiago Videla knocked over two penalties for the hosts either side of that score.

A suspiciously forward pass from Sione Tuipulotu set up Rowe for his first international try and Ben Healy sent Dobie scurrying in at the corner before the interval.

The scrum-half turned winger was celebrating again early in the second half, with some smart passing stretching the home defence.

Then came the biggest cheer of the day from the 25,000 home fans as replacement hooker Diego Escobar crashed through a couple tackles for Chile's only try.

Edinburgh centre Currie spotted a gap and turned on the burners to zoom away and join Rowe in the first-time club.

Rowe followed a similar path to go one better and only a fantastic last-gasp tackle denied the full-back a hat-trick soon after.

Richardson was on hand to finish off after a great thrust from Steyn, and the captain was not be denied as he waltzed away from the exhausted home defence in the final minute of regulation time.

Scotland will complete their tour against Uruguay next Saturday.
