The sun is in the eyes of the Scotland back three now and full-back Meryl Smith immediately shells a catch out of play.

France look pumped. Here we go!

Here come the sides...

France have won five of their last seven Women’s Six Nations away games (L2 both to England) with those wins having come by an average margin of 29 points.

The second half will be a big test of that record.

Fantastic from Scotland. They have come into this game and their kicking game has been key.

France's tackling has been outstanding. Romane Ménager and Assia Khalfaoui have done some outstanding hits.

France are unbeaten across their last 12 Women’s Six Nations matches against Scotland (W11 D1) and have kept the Scots scoreless in seven of those clashes including their meeting in 2023 (55-0).

Scotland had 52% of both possession and territory in that first half. It's been very close but crucially, Elis Martin has the only try.

Who expected this score at the interval?

Scotland stand up to an aggressive France maul, Evie Gallagher gets in and strips the ball and that's half-time!

A reminder that match predictor gave Scotland a 6% chance of winning this...

Superb first-half display so far from the fast-improving hosts, who win a penalty now and the crowd are on their feet.

Scotland's plan is to pin them down into the corners.

The crowd is loving the lineout and the maul drive - the forward power has started to come to the front.

It's amazing play by Scotland, the momentum was there from the drive - a real team play.

Helen Nelson can't add the extras from the tee.

Stunning last-ditch defending, from the French this time as Scotland just can't get the ball over the line. Scotland have a penalty and kick to the corner...

Lisa Thomson's kicking has been exceptional and she lands one right in the corner to force a dangerous lineout. Can Scotland strike?

Scotland somehow get away with having a kick charged down about two metres out and Lisa Thomson then clears her lines with a beauty of a kick. Hanging on a touch back there.

Superb defence from Scotland.

France's Romane Ménager is outstanding and Assia Khalfaoui was just short of the try line.

France have some really strong ball carriers and they know how to organise themselves.

Gaby Vernier, who had that clash of heads earlier on, does now come off.

Brilliant try-line defence! Not for the first time France look certain to score as Assia Khalfaoui drives from just a few metres out but she's held up, somehow.

Helen Nelson's pass is loose and puts Scotland in trouble but full-back Meryl Smith wraps it up well. France still look dangerous though after another quick line break but that final pass is getting away from them in the 22 at the moment.
