    FT: France 20-18 Wales

    And that's it from me, finally.

    I've run out of words to describe what we just witnessed in Paris. Mind boggling.

    But there's still more to come from us this afternoon.

    The final Six Nations game is happening right now in Dublin, so got to dash.

    Here's our  live commentary page for that one.

    Ireland are currently beating England 10-3.

    See you over there.

    FT: France 20-18 Wales

    This is how the table looks at the moment.

    And it's not easy reading for Wales.

    Only two wins in this year's Six Nations and they'll finish second bottom of the table.

    France are currently in second place, but could be bettered by Ireland if they beat England with a bonus-point win.

    This was the moment just shy of 100 minutes on the clock that France finally broke through the Welsh defence...

    Dr Malcolm Harvey:  The ramifications of that suspect French HIA may be quite far reaching... made the end of the game an absolute farce.

    Wally:  Barnes needs reassessing after this performance lost control and out of his depth.

    Simon:  HIA for a shoulder injury, constant penalties for French players standing up in the scrum first. a ''self inflicted'' bite...

    Right, so the winning try was awarded to Camille Chat - France's replacement hooker - but then changed following the game to Damien Chouly.

    But just in case you missed any of the drama, let's try and recap that last ridiculous 20 minutes (with the clock on red).

    80 mins: France awarded a scrum. (France 13-18 Wales)

    83 mins: Scrum reset for a third time. (France 13-18 Wales)

    84 mins: France pop Uini Antonio goes off 'injured' to be replaced by Rabah Slimani. (France 13-18 Wales)

    85 mins: Samson Lee sent to the sin-bin, Wales down to 14 men. (France 13-18 Wales)

    85-93 mins: More scrums and penalties to France. (France 13-18 Wales)

    93 mins: George North claims to have been bitten, reviewed by officials and deemed inconclusive. (France 13-18 Wales)

    93 - 100 mins: Yet more scrums. Lots of whistles. (France 18-18 Wales)

    100 mins: Camille Chat drives over the line. (France 18-18 Wales)

    100 mins: Camille Lopez conversion wins the game for France. (France 20-18 Wales)

  6. 'Total amusement'published at 17:11 Greenwich Mean Time 18 March 2017

    FT: France 20-18 Wales

    Wales captain Alun Wyn Jones on BBC One:

    "Amusement that we got to 100 minutes on the clock.

    "It was an interesting decision that their tighthead went off after 90 mins. There will have to be someone looking at that. The technical officials will have to review that.

    "The penalties were the crutch that got them there in the end.

    "But it's irrelevant what happened at the end there.

    "Two wins from five matches is not good enough. We felt we deserved more today and felt we did enough in the 80 minutes to win the game."

  7. Over in Dublin...published at 17:08 Greenwich Mean Time 18 March 2017

    And over in Dublin, they very politely waited for us to end here in Paris.

    They've just kicked off - tune into our live text commentary here.

    Sure it will be an easier ride.

  8. 'An absolute farce'published at 17:05 Greenwich Mean Time 18 March 2017

    Martyn Williams
    Former Wales captain on BBC One

    For 79 minutes that was one of the most forgettable games you are every likely to watch. Wayne Barnes lost total control in the last 20 minutes.

    It was an absolute farce in the end.

  9. Full-timepublished at 17:04 Greenwich Mean Time 18 March 2017

    France 20-18 Wales

    After 20 minutes of added play, France get the try which seals the win.

    It was far from a spectacle for the majority of the game and it ended in chaos.

  10. 'Not satisfactory for anybody'published at 17:03 Greenwich Mean Time 18 March 2017

    Brian Moore
    Former England hooker on BBC One

    You will not get a more controversial end to this game.

    It is a try. We can go all the way back in what seems like a lifetime now to when France manufactured a way to get their first choice tight-head back on.

    A very questionable substitution that allowed Rabah Slimani to come back on.

    In the end that's not satisfactory for anybody.

    Camille Lopez

    One of the forwards got the try, we're still trying to work out which.

    But Lopez slots the conversion and France take it at the death, literally.

    There are no men left standing on that field.

  12. try

    Try - France 18-18 Walespublished at 17:01 Greenwich Mean Time 18 March 2017

    That took long enough but France got there eventually.

    Scores are level, with the kick to come for the win.

  13. Postpublished at 100 mins

    France 13-18 Wales

    We have reached the century.

    100 minutes of rugby. The first time I've ever written that!

    And guess what? Another penalty to come.

    But Wales are still defending on their line.

    Dan Biggar going to the bin for kicking the ball away...

    Graham Elliott: I think this ref is being payed by the hour  

    Liz: Well nobody thought Sampson Lee might actually come back on

    France 13-18 Wales

    The anthems are starting in Dublin.

    England are chasing the Grand Slam and a record 19th-consecutive victory.

    In Paris, we're still stuck at the scrum.

    Penalty try coming if another one goes down.

    France 13-18 Wales

    If anyone wants to leave us, and catch the build-up to Ireland v England, you can follow our live text here.

    You'd be mad though.

    Here in Paris there is no conclusive footage of the bite. France saying George North bit himself.

    All adding to the utterly bizarre end to this match.

  17. Postpublished at 93 mins

    France 13-18 Wales

    Good job Samson Lee didn't head to the showers.

    Samson Lee sent to the sin-bin on 85 mins and he makes it back onto the field.

    Now, to add to the drama, we have allegations of a bite from a French player.

    George North says he has a mark so we'll stop to review this.

  18. Postpublished at 91 mins

    France 13-18 Wales

    Remember Wales are a man-down so if France to decide to move the ball this could be the end of Wales.

    They get the ball out left from the scrum but that's another penalty advantage coming.

    France still in possession as the ball goes loose.

    It's picked up by Gael Fickou and back we go for the penalty.

    Will this ever end?

    30 seconds left on the clock for Samson Lee...

    Wales are penalised for offside.

    France chuck the ball wide and knock-on but we will go back for the penalty.

    And that means another scrum...
