France beat an underpowered England at Stade de France on Sunday. England failed to score at all in the first half and it was left to the individual brilliance of Jonny May to save their blushes.

France have have some new, young dynamic players in Antoine Dupont and Vincent Rattez who with captain Charles Ollivon scored 1st half tries against a tired looking and clueless England.

The Shaun Edwards coached French defence was immense and they must now be in with a chance of the Six Nations Championship victory or even the Grand Slam.
