Smith gets the second half underway and a little knock on gives England an attacking scrum

France take an 18-6 lead over England into halftime. France opened the scoring with an early penalty and ran in the game's first try 15 minutes in to lead 8-0. England got on the board with a penalty midway through the half, with the sides then trading penalties to see France up 11-6 after half an hour of play. France missed a long range penalty attempt five minutes from halftime, but crossed for their second try on the stroke of halftime to take a 12 point advantage into the break. Remember a win for France sees them win the Six Nations Championship with a Grand Slam and they are halfway there. Massive second half to follow.
