Converted try - France 14-5 Englandpublished at 13 mins

Louis Bielle-Biarrey (con Ramos)
Lomu-esque stuff! How good is this guy? How poor is it for England to leave space like that, as Matthieu Jalibert this time does the damage with a left-footed kick that is on the money and Louis Bielle-Biarrey scoops it up superbly to score.
What a start in Paris! A brilliant try, Fin Smith is involved nicely in an eight-phase attack and Elliot Daly then has time to pick out Roebuck in the corner to slide in.

France 7-0 England
Paul Grayson Former England fly-half on BBC Radio 5 Live
England will be really disappointed with that. It was a brilliant finish, but they gave the penalty away and France trucked it up the left hand side. Bielle-Biarrey is an absolute wizard out there.
There will be people struggling with a kit clash here, they are both wearing white shorts for a start. The wide TV angle makes it hard to tell the sides apart. Could be a ready-made excuse for one side or the other later on...
England players and fans certainly belt out God Save The King with gusto but the roof comes off for La Marseillaise. Delivered a cappela as is the norm these days.
