    Well, what can you say?

    What an extraordinary match. Utterly stunning drama and perhaps the most remarkable end to any game in Six Nations history.

    There can be no crueller way for Wales to be denied a Grand Slam, while France could scarely have scripted a more spectacular way of keeping their title hopes alive.

    When Wales wake up tomorrow morning, bodies aching and emotionally spent, they can at least console themselves with the knowledge they could still win the Six Nations Championship.

    France need to beat Scotland with a bonus point and a points difference of at least 21 to be crowned champions.

    Otherwise, the title will belong to Wales.

    That will matter little to them now, though. The Grand Slam dream is gone and that is all that matters.

    But that's not all from the Six Nations. Join us next Friday as the title goes down to the wire when France take on Scotland in their rescheduled match.

    Until then, have a lie down and try to recover from tonight's drama - and thanks for joining us. Nos da!

    France team manager Raphael Ibanez speaking to BBC One:

    "I think it was an incredible finish. We have mixed emotions. It was a fantastic battle and we got the win after a massive effort.

    "Even after the red card, we still had to believe. It was immense.

    "Credit to Wales, who showed a lot of character.

    "We have to regroup and prepare well for the game coming."

    Wales captain Alun Wyn Jones speaking to BBC One:

    "I thought we were pretty good for 80 minutes but it was just those dying seconds. Our ill discipline brought a lot of pressure on.

    "Credit to France for those last 15 minutes. When we look back, the discipline brought the pressure on as well as superb French play.

    "We knew what was at stake; it's not in our hands now. We invited that pressure on, credit to how France played.

    "We are proud and privileged to get on with it, and win the Triple Crown, but there was more at stake. Hopefully we made people at home proud, but it is out of our hands now."

    I thought the officials were fantastic and probably the reason why we saw the Test match we have seen tonight.

    If France are to deny Wales the Six Nations title, they must beat Scotland with a bonus point...and by 21 points to take it on points difference.

    This game will be talked about for generations. Those boys have done a lot for Welsh rugby. We should be proud as a nation.

    I really feel for the boys. They'll be so disappointed. We were ready to win that Grand Slam.

  13. What next for Wales?published at 22:10 Greenwich Mean Time 20 March 2021

    FT: France 32-30 Wales

    Wales are clearly crestfallen, their Grand Slam hopes dashed in the most agonising fashion imaginable.

    They could yet win the Six Nations Championship.

    If France do not beat Scotland with a bonus point next Friday, Wales will be champions.

    Even if Les Bleus are victorious with a bonus point, Wales could still win on points difference.

    But that will matter little to them right now.

    Wales will be gutted.

    What unbelievable entertainment. Every Wales game has been full of drama - the best they have played under this new coaching regime.

    That was their best performance by a mile under Wayne Pivac. Those players can be very proud of themselves and we can be very proud of the way they've represented the country.

    Jonathan Davies

    They were under so much pressure and succumbed to the pressure and that is what has lost them the game. They have played magnificently tonight, the best performance of the season.

    Sometimes there aren't fairy tale endings.

    We are all speechless here in commentary. It wasn't bad defence, they just didn't have enough men in the end.
