There's uncharacteristic handling errors from Wales. They've not been able to launch an attack because of their errors.

To be fair to France, they're putting massive pressure on the Welsh ruck.

A big 40 minutes from France number eight Louis Picamoles.

The former Northampton man has made 34 metres - only three more France players have made more - and beaten three defenders.

He has also won two turnovers.

Obelix made flesh.

On counterattack, they've looked like France. France having turnover ball against you in France is a nightmare.

If Liam Williams had been able to keep control of the ball, Wales would have had a try midway through the opening half to draw level with France.

But it wasn't to be.

Ifs, buts and maybes...

Daniel Foy: Very un-Welsh like tonight. Like playing in treacle.

Margaret Roberts: Think Wales need to be emptying the bench at half-time.

Tim Purcell: With all of the handling errors - the Wales changing room is going to be a mess at half time when they hand out the drinks.

I cannot believe Gareth Anscombe was going for touch because he has missed it by 10 metres.

Wales cannot play any worse and France have hammered another nail into the coffin.

And France work it perfectly.

The hosts thump back up to within range, before Camille Lopez pulls back his left peg and wallops over an ambitious drop-goal.

He slaps a high five as he sprints off down the tunnel.

There is a lot of puff in those French chests...

A free-kick awarded to Wales for an early France push.

Twenty second on the clock. Gareth Anscombe opts to blast it long rather than give France the throw into the line-out...

Massive defensive shift from the Wales pack.

They were on the cliff-edge there as Damian Penaud and Morgan Parra threw their weight in with the orc-like France pack.

But they keep the ball off the floor to force the turnover.

They have put in to a scrum, five metres from their own line....

Jonathan Davies gives away a brain dead penalty on his own 22m as he snakes an arm through the breakdown and scrags Morgan Parra from an offside position.

And France go for the jugular.

They have kicked into the corner.

A HUGE three minutes coming up...

Wales are in trouble.

The entire French half is completely empty of blue shirts but Gareth Anscombe misses touch and they are under pressure again.

Gareth Anscombe overcooks a kick into French backfield after Maxime Medard had been caught up in a breakdown somewhere.

Out on the full.

And Anscombe gives it a rueful look.

Might Gatland be ready to do some major surgery on his line-up at half-time?

Euan Granger: Nothing quite like opening night of the Six Nations - with a literary feel this year as Poirot takes on Moriarty in France v Wales.

Saidmadrid: There's more hunger in the French side. They are going for every ball as if it was the last one, unlike the Welsh that look very soft and vulnerable at the back.

Sammy Lighthouse: We're going to need Wales to pull out a second half like they did against Tonga.... This isn't looking good.

It's a big start from France. I don't think anyone would have predicted it.

Wales have looked poor. They've looked flat. Whenever they've got a bit of momentum they've dropped the ball.

Straight forward as a slap-up roast dinner.

France put another brick in the wall.

Is there a French saying for 'under the pump'?

Asking for a friend.

France with the penalty advantage as they bash up to within a metre...

Back for the offence. And what are France going to choose?

The call for the tee from bang in front.

Morgan Parra is demoted and Camille Lopez should be able to kick this one in a blizzard, never mind the continuing rain...
