    Mistake by Haskell, popping the ball up, and France gain some traction. More mistakes in the French midfield but Burrell is unable to gather the loose ball. Plisson, the French fly-half, is having a bit of a nightmare start but this is better from France, swinging the ball left and gaining ground. England turn it over and Youngs kicks ahead, French mix-up in defence again, the visitors are all at sea...

    Bath fly-half Ford pushes his penalty attempt right of the posts, that was something of a scuff...

    England's forwards win the put-in at the scrum after Dusautoir is held up. Almost centre field, England's backs split. France wheel and England are awarded the penalty. Robshaw points to the sticks, Ford is going to have a shy from just inside the France half...

    "We wondered how England were going to play this game. Would they try and win the game in the first half and then see where they are in the second half? No chance. They have come out all guns blazing.

    "And France look like they could play into England's hands here. They have thrown the ball along the line with no conviction or urgency."

    "What on earth France were doing I have no idea. But England have taken the chance when it comes and it sets them up quite nicely."

    Solid French scrum but scrum-half Tillous-Borde is scragged. Joseph brings it clear, the ball is shipped inside and Ben Youngs eventually touches down. That all stemmed from an iffy pass in the French midfield, by the way. I'd like to be a fly on the wall wherever it is the Ireland team are watching this. Ford kicks the extras...

    Nigel Owens of Wales is on the whistle today. Steve Walsh was due to be in charge but he's decided to spend more time in front of the mirror. France get the game under way and we have a scrum on the England 10m line.

    "I don't think England need to do anything different - they need precision and accuracy.

    "England need a good start, but must be patient and concentrate on taking every point-scoring opportunity they get."

    For those just joining us, England need to beat France by 26 points or more to pip Ireland to the championship (they have scored more tries than Ireland so far). England have beaten France by 26 points before, but it was in 1911. Furthermore, France have only conceded two tries in this year's tournament.

    Sir Clive Woodward
    Former England coach on BBC One

    "I would always elevate these games, you want to find out who can play under pressure.

    "I'd be saying 'we need to win by 26 points'. I'd build the pressure up and make it massive.

    "I think in World Cup year, they need to win something."

    "George Ford is the real deal, a general. He runs the midfield so well.

    "His understanding with Jonathan Joseph is crucial today. They work on it at club level with Bath and have translated it to the international arena."
