  1. 'Brilliant from Darge'

    Scotland 10-12 France

    Chris Paterson
    Former Scotland international on BBC One

    That's a brilliant score, fair play to the decision makers and that was a brilliant attacking line from Darge.

    Rory Darge

    What a way to mark your first Scotland start!

    Ali Price feeds Rory Darge, who runs a great line to slice his way through the ranks of French defenders.

    Finn Russell clips over the extras.

    'Right back in the game!' - Darge scores first Scotland try

  3. No try

    Scotland 3-12 France

    We go back for a penalty for a high tackle. Scotland go again, with a penalty advantage.

  4. Scotland 3-12 France

    More work for the TMO as we get a look at Ali Price trying to ground the ball. I'm not sure it's down, but there's some French jiggery-pokery going on.

  5. Scotland 3-12 France

    Finn Russell kicks to the corner. Scotland are held up inches from the line as they break from the line-out.

  6. Scotland 3-12 France

    Chris Paterson
    Former Scotland international on BBC One

    He does not make a genuine attempt to take the ball there.

  7. Scotland 3-12 France

    Duhan Van der Merwe breaks into open ground and Chris Harris also gets motoring. Then we have the strange sight of French full-back Jaminet heading on a cross-field kick from Finn Russell.

    The referee is a bit lost here, but the TMO sorts him out.

    Penalty to Scotland.

  8. Scotland 3-12 France

    Boos from the crowd as France hold a man up for longer than is acceptable at a line-out. The ref gives them a free-kick, then a warning, which is a bit odd.

  9. Scotland 3-12 France

    Scotland go super-long from the line-out. Finn Russell stabs a bobbling kick through a gap but France full-back Jaminet gets across to cover.

  10. Scotland 3-12 France

    Loose from France off the back of a rolling maul and Scotland breathe a sigh of relief.

    Can the hosts get a foothold in this game?

    Scotland get the nudge on from a scrum and a penalty comes their way#. Time to hoof it up the pitch.

  11. Scotland 3-12 France

    Scotland work their way into the French half, but the visitors are up in their faces so quickly and the home side soon surrender the ball.

  12. Scotland 3-12 France

    Scotland had conceded just two tries in the first two matches...

  13. Blistering start from France

    Scotland 3-12 France

    Andy Nicol
    Former Scotland scrum-half on Radio Scotland

    Before the game I thought Scotland would need to beat France at their kicking game, kicking to the corners, but France are executing so well.

  14. 'That is a wonder try'

    Scotland 3-12 France

    Chris Paterson
    Former Scotland international on BBC One

    Absolutely brilliant. The scrambled defence was almost as good as you'll see but France still managed to score! It's all about keeping the ball alive and brilliant from the loosehead prop Baille. That is a wonder try.

  15. try

    Try Scotland 3-12 France

    Yoram Moefana

    Wow! Scotland are skittled over once more as France show off some top quality offloading to allow Yoram Moefana to plunge through.

    The wind blows the conversion attempt off course.

    'Everyone has to applaud, that is brilliant!' - Moefana extends France's lead

  17. Penalty Scotland 3-7 France

    Scotland on the board as Finn Russell splits the posts.

  18. Scotland 0-7 France

    Sam Warburton
    Former Wales captain on BBC One

    What an amazing example of pace and power. I have never seen a player like Dupont with his height qho is so strong in the upper body, you have to go low on him and treat him like a number eight.

    He has such explosive power. This is why France are so different to other teams, because they combine pace and power.

  19. converted try

    Converted try Scotland 0-7 France

    Paul Willemse

    Ooft! French captain Antoine Dupont steams forward from deep in his own territory, swatting opponents aside and when the ball is worked to Paul Willemse there's no stopping the big lock.

    Power and pace. Scotland with no answer.

    Jaminet makes amends for the missed penalty, knocking over the conversion.

    'What a try!' - Willemse scores to give France early lead

  20. Missed penalty

    Scotland 0-0 France

    A big let-off for Scotland as Jaminet misses an easy one.
