Good response from the French, Setting up a maul that gets hauled down. Doussain steps up to finally convert one, albeit with the aid of the post. 1 minute to go in the half.

Heartbreak for the French after dominating the first half. The ABs carry through the forwards before sending the ball wide to Dagg, who skips the ball to Smith to sneak in in the corner. Carter cant convert from a difficult angle, but still a crucial time to lead.

Ben smith ben smith great finish

The French again getting the hit on at scrum time, his time Wyatt Crockett buckling. Doussain steps up to kick but again misses this time pulling it. 33 mins gone, the French really should be ahead.

Ben Smith, who looks very lively so far, cuts through in midfield. Hauled down outside the 22, at the next ruck the French are guilty of going off their feet. Carters penalty strikes the upright so the scores remain level.

Ben smith you legend

Didnt even take a breath with that penalty

Franks penalised for going down in the scrum , but Dulin shanks his effort, scores remain level

Lovely move from the French, Tales recieves the ball on a wrap around and goes straight through, only to be ankle tapped before putting Huget away for the try. France looking really up for this.

The ABs getting into this game now, setting up a solid maul inside the French 22, which is brought dow. Nigel Owens awards a penalty which Carter nails to level the scores, 17 mins gone.
