    That was such a close call but a great spot by the TMO.

    Wales escape - for now.

    Wales 24-20 France

    Gregory Alldritt picks and goes from the back of the scrum and then the huge blue jerseys just pile forward.

    Second row Thibaud Flament looks to have touched down between the posts.

    But hang on... did he drop the ball?

    France are hammering away on the line.

    Did they go wide too early then?

    But France have a penalty and go for the scrum - of course.

    Damien Penaud always looks so dangerous when he gets the ball.

    He only needs two more tries to match Serge Blanco's all-time French Test try record of 38.

    Wales 24-20 France

    France have just been pulled back for yet another forward pass. That's about the fourth one called this match.

    That's what comes from a backline that shows five changes from the last game.

    It's the offload after the half break, brilliant attacking either side of the front five especially Uini Atonio.

    Joe Roberts had to score there with the overlap and two men on the outside. Brilliant play for Wales.

    What a brilliant try! You talk about delivering a message and delivering it, using the outside channels and they've done it against tired defence.

    Converted try - Wales 24-20 Francepublished at 43 mins

    Joe Roberts try, Sam Costelow con

    And the new boy is over.

    Oh it looked for a horrible moment that he had blown it but he scrambles over for his first Test try on his second cap.

    Josh Adams was unmarked outside - he would have had something to say if Roberts didn't score.

    But Wales are back in front and Costelow converts from out wide.

    People are getting used to this new Warren Gatland team and this new era so they're more comfortable when it's loose.

    In the old era we were more comfortable when it was confrontational.
