France v Wales

France 32-21 Wales: Dwayne Peel breaks as Wales take the game to the hosts early on at Stade de France

David Skrela puts France ahead with a penalty but a blind-side break from Alix Popham gives Wales the game's first try

Wales continue in style as Tom Shanklin goes over for a second try, following James Hook's deft catch and offload

Another Skrela penalty keeps the hosts within sight at 6-14 while France regroup and begin to dominate the game

A jinking try from winger Christophe Dominici and a Skrela conversion make it 13-14 as France's momentum increases

The pressure starts to show as a try from Lionel Nallet and another Skrela penalty put France 23-14 ahead at the break

France add two more penalties in the second half but Jamie Robinson narrows the gap to 29-21 with five minutes to play

But a final penalty, this time from Lionel Beauxis, seals a 32-21 victory for France and a disappointing night for Wales
