Never in doubt.

France are in control.

And Ireland concede the penalty.

Thomas Ramos points to the posts.

It's just inside the 22 and I think everyone knows what is coming next. Ramos doesn't miss two in a row very often.

The French power is doing so much damage. And it's not just the forwards either.

Every runner is punching a hole in the green defence.

Ireland are holding firm, but Joe McCarthy gives away the penalty advantage.

Tadhg Beirne does well to get his hands over the ball and force the turnover from Jalibert, but Ireland immediately lose it and France are back on the fringes of the 22.

And now Ireland's front row concede a free-kick for going early at the scrum.

Josh van der Flier is almost in but play is brought back for a Tommy O'Brien knock on in the air.

It's just not happening for Andy Farrell's side.

The form Jalibert is in, there is only going to be one result there.

Antoine Dupont is so dynamic off the base of the ruck and scrum. However, that was far too easy for Jalibert. He wasn't even touched.

It's the pressure at the back of the scrum and there was no support in defending for Ireland. They were out-numbered either way.

France are trying to get Ireland to bounce out and make the big hits, it creates a dog leg for someone else to go through.

It's the ultimate line for what is a hospital there is a golden rule that you don't pass the ball if you are not in a better off position.

Sam Prendergast jumps out of the line and Moefana races into the gap.

He breaks the line but the Irish fly-half makes amends by intercepting the offload.

He's then in danger in his own line and throws a hospital pass to O'Brien, who has to dot down.

France have the scrum five metres out.

France win a penalty and Dupont takes it quickly.

Not hanging about from the French captain.

They're already up to the 22 and are trying to go through the gears.

The skill set of this French team, they are so dangerous.

France have the put in at the scrum on halfway but it's going to be reset.

That was an incredible use of space and the talent like that to use three meters of space and score.

It all came from Sam Prendergast volleying the ball into play instead of conceding touch.

Bielle-Biarrey then beat Jamison Gibson-Park, Prendergast and Jacob Stockdale on his way to scoring.

What a player. That's his 21st try in just 23 caps.
