    France 28-12 Wales

    The Wales scrum is put under all sorts of pressure, and Kayleigh Powell is tackled in the in-goal area.

    There is a bit of 'afters', with Pauline Bourdon-Sansus and Kayleigh Powell the two most heavily involved.

    That's all cleared up now, and it will be a five-metre scrum for France.

    Bethan Lewis has been outstanding today so Bryonie King has big boots to fill as she comes on.

    France 28-12 Wales

    France have had some dominant scrums today, but that was the most convincing of the lot.

    The Wales forwards were launched backwards, and France win the penalty.

    They kick to the corner, and have the line-out 10 metres out.

    I must say Gwenllian Pyrs is a fantastic player and one of those who could get in most Six Nations sides.

    Once again the Welsh defence is up to the task as soon as France get into the 22.

    This time it is Kate Williams who turns the ball over for Wales, and France then play a forward pass.

    A chance for Wales to catch their breath!

    And it is that line-speed which forces another handling error from Wales, and France have the scrum advantage on the Welsh 10-metre line.

    Another try for the hosts here would make an already difficult task almost impossible.

    France 28-12 Wales

    This is a promising spell for Wales, who are seeing a lot of the ball in French territory.

    The French line-speed is causing issues however.

    Georgia Evans is currently top tackler and ball carrier for Wales.

    That is work rate.

    This Wales attack has a bit more pace to it, and Georgia Evans is making metres with every carry.

    France looked like they have had a chat at half-time about the chance of interceptions but Wales responded with a brilliant run by Carys Cox.

    It is one thing that Wales fans have wanted to see with the ball in the backs.

    It set up the situation where Wales looked they had responded brilliantly with a great angle and try from Courtney Keight.

    The try was disallowed. The decision is right by the letter of the law but it is so frustrating.

    That's more excellent defensive work from the Welsh forwards, who keep Montserrat Amedee on her feet in the tackle and win the put-in at the scrum.

    Kayleigh Powell is also leaving the field, but for a head injury assessment (HIA).

    Sian Jones will come on in her place, as the Wales backs have a reshuffle.

    Keira Bevan will switch to fly-half for the meantime.
