    Wales have given away too many needless penalties.

    It's all well and good being physical but you also have to be accurate and precise, especially against a team like France, and Wales haven't been able to do that.

    France come again, first Wales are penalised for offside and then Donna Rose takes out Marine Menager off the ball.

    France have an attacking line-out deep in Welsh territory as they seek a sixth try.

    Wales have made two more changes, Kelsey Jones is on for Carys Phillips while Kerin Lake replaces Elinor Snowsill.

    That just sums up Wales' night. They just haven't been on it.

    It could be down to how much pressure France have put on them, but they've got to try and finish on a high here.

    France make three more changes, Coco Lindelauf, Assia Khalfaoui and Emilie Boulard are on.

    Wales are not showing signs of giving up, and work the ball well into French territory.

    They win another penalty but Elinor Snowsill's kick drifts too long and out of bounds behind the French try line.

    France will have the scrum on their own 22-metre yard, really disappointing for Wales.

    That just looked too easy for Tremouliere.

    But I just noticed on the replay how she faked to go blind, and put Wales on the backfoot so that is great play and great awareness from France to manipulate Wales' defence.

    Converted try - Wales 0-33 Francepublished at 56 mins

    Jessy Tremouliere, con Tremouliere

    France have their fifth try of the evening.

    Jessy Tremouliere, who has been exceptional with the boot, shows what she can do with ball in hand.

    France fake going down the blind-side from the scrum but instead feed Tremouliere who powers through Robyn Wilkins to score.

    She also pops over the simple conversion.

    Wales 0-26 France

    France steal the ball at the scrum for the second time today.

    Alexandra Chambon breaks away with the ball and Alex Callender is penalised at the breakdown as France win yet another penalty.

    Once more the players have a couple heated words after the whistle has blown but nothing to it.

    France knock the ball on as they look to threaten once again.

    Wales have a defensive scrum, which replacements Donna Rose and Cara Hope will be thrown straight into.

    Wales captain Siwan Lillicrap makes way for Sioned Harries, she appears to have a slight limp as she walks down the tunnel at the Arms Park.

    Wales 0-26 France

    After a positive first 10 minutes to the second half for Wales, France have found their feet once more and have worked their way into the Welsh 22.

    France's lock Madoussou Fall did most of the work with a powerful carry through the heart of the Welsh defence.

    Wales are penalised on their own five-metre line, as France look for their first points of the second half.

    Wales 0-26 France

    France respond to Wales' replacements with a double change of their.

    Scrum-half Laure Sansus is off, which won't disappoint Wales, as is captain Gaelle Hermet.

    Audrey Forlani and Alexandra Chambon are on.

    Wales can't let France keep dictating and settle into the game. And they've started well this half, they've harried the French and asked questions of them in attack.

    They've just got to be a bit more clinical in those key moments.

    I think France know how much of a threat Jasmine Joyce is - they just fly on to her straight away and stop her momentum.

    Such a shame Wales couldn't execute there.

    Wales win the scrum, Keira Bevan goes left to Jasmine Joyce but the French defence is up quickly and win the penalty at the breakdown.

    More disappointment for Wales, but they'll be pleased with the way they've started this half.

    Wales' Ffion Lewis is on at scrum-half, as is flanker Alex Callender. Bethan Lewis and Keira Bevan make way.

    I think it's a good shout for Wales to take the scrum because you're already splitting the French defence, so it gives them a chance to attack and try and manipulate them a bit more.

    Wales 0-26 France

    Wales choose to go for the scrum, a brave decision after conceding a few penalties in this area in the first half.

    The scrum is around five metres out, just to the right of the French posts.

    Wales 0-26 France

    Keira Bevan breaks through the French defence but is held up six metres short.

    It's still Wales' ball as the forwards look to make the hard yards.

    It's another penalty to Wales, much much better from the hosts already in this second half.

    Wales lose the ball at the line out, but the resulting French attack is stopped as Carys Phillips does excellently to get her body over the ball and win a penalty at the breakdown.

    Keira Bevan kicks Wales into French territory and Jasmine Joyce finds a yard of space for the first time today.

    France are once again penalised at the breakdown and Wales are into the French 22 for just the second time.

    There's a little bit of kick-tennis to begin this second half, France full-back Chloe Jacquet lucky to see her fumble go backwards.

    Wales ultimately come out on top though, France kicking straight into touch to give the Welsh an attacking line-out.
