t. Big scrap afterwards.

Loved the way Nige simply watched and waited until the children had finished playing silly buggers.

He's to reffing what Dan Carter is to no. 10's

May scores for England. Chases hard after his own kick.

[Bones]

I can't stand him but magic try from May. Got to admire his ability to create from sheer hard work.

France 24 England 7

[Victor Meldrew]

Frog no.15 is having a dream game

[sparky]

20 minutes to go.

[sparky]

Youngs passes to no one. Not his day so far.

Gets taken off. Will Heinz on.

[sparky]

French really struggling at scrum time now.

[Victor Meldrew]

Great scrum from England, France 9 takes the ball going backward and gains 10m, France knock-on...and an England pass is lobbed into touch.

Sums up England today.

[Victor Meldrew]

Cracking try by May.

[sparky]

May in again. Another fantastic solo effort.

France 24 England 14

[sparky]

France tiring horribly here and getting eaten alive up front. If England are patient and take their chances, they can do this.

14 minutes to go.

[sparky]

Good work by the English finishers. Really stretching the French defence now. Crowd much quieter.

[Victor Meldrew]

Frog defence is seriously impressive. Edwards has made a big difference

Both teams look really tired. Poms could still nick this though

[sparky]

Eight and half minutes to go. France with a scrum in their own 22.

[sparky]

Ellis Genge and Luke Cowan-Dickie have been excellent since coming on for England.

[Victor Meldrew]

France's composure when under pressure has been very impressive.

Far fewer errors than French teams of late.

@Victor-Meldrew

I'm really impressed by the composure of Dupont, the half back, great clearance work.

Their younger players have been impressive - talent coming thru from their U20 teams
