Antoine Dupont is world class in so many facets of his play. He has probably cleared 20-25 metres with that kick and he isn't going to be happy, he wants 30, 40, 50 metres.

England elect not to kick the penalty and put the ball out for a lineout instead. The home crowd like that! Can they make it stick?

No, again France force the turnover with Charles Ollivon emerging from a pack of bodies with the ball. Superb play.

England get forward momentum after that kick and force a penalty. Get points on the board?

That is a good kick from Anthony Watson as it split the back two players for France. Good territory game from England, decent patience and a good kick from Watson

England have settled a bit and look better - but France already have scoreboard pressure as Jack van Poortvliet then makes a mess of his kick forwards.

The next try already feels like a big one in this game.

We have spoken about this a lot with England, they are going to have to adapt because of these conditions. Drizzle and slightly more than a drizzle is coming down, they not only have to play differently strategically but the way they clear.

Again, France are so quick at the tackle to get over the ball and force a turnover. Brilliant play, frustrating for the hosts.

That's good from Marcus Smith, diving between two French shirts and splitting the line as the rain starts to hammer down.

As England turn that ball over Marcus Smith was pointing to slow the ball down. At Harlequins he would have ball in hands and would have a crack.

England have won their last two Six Nations matches by margins of 10 points or more. They haven't won three consecutive championship matches by double-figure margins since 2009-10. It'll be some game if they do manage it.

It's frantic and stretched as both sides put boot to ball, the 30 players are strewn right across the park. The home crowd have recovered from that early setback and are providing a wall of sound.

Shapeless from England off their own line-out. A fumble from Ludlam and they lost their shape.

No. France are dominant at the contact at the moment and win a penalty, instant turnover ball again.

England's first real attack, they win a penalty and kick it into the corner. Can the forwards put on some pressure?

Rachel: England kick it and France run with it. Same old story.

France certainly have picked up where they left off. It's fast, furious and calculated.

AP: Oooh boy this is going to be a long 80 minutes. England already falling off tackles left right and centre.

Gregory Alldritt folds up Freddie Steward like a deckchair before there's a penalty for the visitors.

Thomas Ramos curls it in with style and England are in big trouble already.

That score sucked the atmosphere out of Twickenham like a vacuum pump. Stunning back play, but were England naive there?
