Those 2 quick tries by France have really knocked the wind out of the Italian sails

Fofana picks the ball from the base of the ruck and snipes around the blind side. Ran 25m to score

WHAT A TRY by Fofana

The TMO was looking at possible obstruction but it was deemed to not interfere with play. Try & Conversion for France

Picamoles with what seems is a try for France - Jaco Peyper has gone to the TMO

That's half time in a rather tight match, the French lead by 6 points

You cant afford to miss easy kicks at this level against a French side

The French are struggling at scrum time as they concede another penalty

French attacking scrum 5m out and a huge scrum by Italy earns them a penalty

Great kick from Plisson that rolls out just on the 5m mark. Italy need a good line out now
