Summary

  1. Full-time: Wales 7-38 Francepublished at 17:27 BST

    At half-time, it was in the balance.

    But in the end, a comprehensive French win. Francois Ratier's side produced 31 unanswered points in the second-half to make it two from two in this year's Championship.

    As for Wales - it was a dogged and determined display. But the long wait for a Six Nations win continues.

    The scary thing is that the French team have barely got out of third gear, and you know there is a lot more to come from this French team.

    What they have done is play good, reactionary rugby. When the momentum is there they have capitalized on it.

    Few can question that decision.

    A class display from the experienced scrum-half.

    Anais Grando

    She's over again!

    That's two caps, three tries for Anais Grando as she keeps her composure to jink inside and dive over in the corner.

    Some might say, a Grando-stand finish.

    Sorry...

    France have got a younger side this year so watch out when this side matures over the next few years.

    This time, France can't convert pressure into points as Anais Grando knocks-on near the corner flag.

    Wales have been a clear second best today, but you can't question the commitment. They are refusing to fold over here.

    The pressure is relentless now as the Welsh scrum is shunted back off their own ball and a French penalty follows.

    Moments later Pauline Barrat breaks clear in midfield and although Wales scramble well in defence, France stay on the attack...

    Beautiful swerving run from the winger.

    It is only her second cap and she is one the new, exciting French players coming through the ranks.

    Anais Grando (Con: Lina Queyroi)

    A superb finish from the winger, dancing through a tired Welsh defence before showing great strength to reach out and score as she's tackled near the line.

    The TMO got the referee to look at a potential knock-on - but he's satisfied there wasn't and the score stands.

    What a tackle by Lockwood!

    Really good work from the youngster.

    The attack doesn't last long as France win turnover ball and look to break up-field.

    They do just that as Anais Grande flies down the wing and over half-way, before the ball is worked to the other flank where Lea Murie is brilliantly denied by the covering Seren Lockwood!

    Incidentally, it is very much a family affair with the French side now with Teani Feleu joining skipper Manae on the field.

    The replacement centre is penalised there though for holding on and Wales have a chance to mount some offence at last.

    It really is all France now.

    The latest attack yields a penalty and they go for the corner. But respite for Wales as Elisa Riffonneau's throw fails to find the target.

    Proud moment for the family of Jenna De Vera and for herself, one of Wales' more exciting players for the future.

    After an ACL repair last season, what a moment for Jenna de Vera as she comes on for her debut.

    Called onto the bench today, the former Wales Under-20s captain makes her first senior appearance.

    At least a moment to cheer for the home crowd as Jenna de Vera, not even in the matchday squad when it was initially announced on Thursday - comes on for her first cap.

    She picks her moments, a very selfless player always looking for try assists. But you know she's got it in the tank to take her opportunities.

    You really feel the momentum now is all France.

    Pauline Bourdon Sansus (Con: Carla Arbez)

    And there is the bonus point!

    She created the third try, and now the experienced number nine has scored the fourth.

    The forwards did the donkey work with a rolling maul, before Bourdon Sansus spots a gap and cleverly snipes over by the posts.

    Class moment from a class player.

    Lightning nearly strikes twice as Lea Murie again powers down the left-wing - but this time she's just about stopped by a combination of Seren Lockwood and Jasmine Joyce.

    France are hunting a bonus point here.

    Really clever stuff from the scrum half, she spotted that they were a player down on that side. She looks up, sees there is only one there, runs towards her, fixes on her and releases.

    Kayleigh Powell will be gutted about that one.
