Wales vs France LIVE: Women’s Six Nations rugby result and final score as Les Bleues continue winning run

Thank you so much for joining me for this cracking Women’s Six Nations match.

Wales did so well to limit France in the second half and if they had performed that way throughout the match the score would be a lot closer. France weren’t perfect, far from it, with a huge amount of handling errors and penalties seeing opportunities thrown away.

Their weaknesses will have to be improved upon before they face England next week. At the moment it feels as though the Red Roses will retain the title.

But England do have to face Ireland before France, which they will do on Sunday. And Italy will face Scotland on Saturday.

Tune in for all the actions here at the Independent and I’ll catch you for some more rugby soon!

Well France have their fourth bonus point victories with an impressive first half performance.

But it was similar to the Scotland match in that France dropped off in the second half, only scoring seven points in the second 40.

Nevertheless France are still on for the Grand Slam which puts pressure on England to come up with the goods on Sunday against Ireland.

Incredible finish from Harries! She twists and gets one arm over the line.

A great pay off for the crowd and the team.

Wilkins misses the kick for the last action of the game.

Player of the Match has been awarded to Sansus, she has scored two tries to help her side to a bonus point win.

Wales catch and drive metres away from their line and they get another penalty with Boujard offside.

Ref warns France for the repeated penalties as Wales kick to the corner.

Wales drive again are they over? They will go upstairs to the TMO!

France get another scrum penalty and they look to see this one out with another score as Jacquet kicks to the corner.

She misses touch and Wilkins comes away with it, they get a penalty and Lewis takes it quickly.

The hosts have an advantage and so they put in a cross field kick, it doesn’t come off and so we come back. They kick to the corner, can they get any points on the board in these last few minutes?

Wales’ line-out is slightly messy but the hosts come away with it. The crowd are raucous here, they desperately want to see their side score.

Wales try to build from deep but a long pass is intercepted by Jacquet and now France are on the drive.

Another knock-on from France, this has been awful for France. They have given away countless opportunities by failing to catch simple passes. It was a weakness in their match against Scotland too.

Joyce, who hasn’t been given much ball, is off and Wales are continuing to show heart at home.

Wilkins tries a chip and chase but it doesn’t bounce well and so we come back for an earlier advantage. Wilkins kicks to the corner.

France do manage to wrestle possession back and they are now building from their own half.

Tremouliere is off for Peyronnet.

France display what they have when they get on the front foot but Annery’s offload doesn’t go to hand. Luckily for the visitors the referee sees a Welsh knock on and so we have another scrum.

France come away with it as Rose is penalised and the vistors opt for another scrum! I’d like to know what percentage of the game has been scrummaging.

France get an attack on the go but Jacquet drops it! How are they knocking it on this much?

So yes, you guessed it, another scrum.

More France handling errors as Filopon drops an easy pass but Wales need credit for their defence causing these to seep into France’s game.

Wow, the BBC have just brought up the errors stats. France have had 14 handling errors. 14! That is something they need to cut out ahead of their showdown with England next week. The Red Roses aren’t perfect but they will capitalise on those errors.

Scrums are exchanged with France winning one and then the hosts taking a penalty for themselves. Wilkins kicks to touch.

A good Wales attack sees an ambitious cross field kick but it just goes beyond the player.

And even more substitutions as Terry and Hope comes on.

The France scrum is strong and they immediately get an advantage.

We come back for it after Fall knocks on. It wouldn’t be surprising if a card is shown soon, penalties for both sides are clocking up.

Why the referee hasn’t gone to her pocket yet after all the scuffles we have seen. She warned the captains in the first half and there have been many since!

Rose puts in a late tackle on Boujard and so France kick to corner from the resulting penalty.

Wales make more changes as Jones and Lake are on. And Frnace have brought on Gros.

This is getting a bit easy for France and there’s a feeling if they weren’t so sloppy with their handling errors and penalties they would be further ahead.

Wales are on the charge now with Rose making great metres. Phase after phase, the home side are plodding on and they have a penalty advantage. A cross field kick is put in but France collect, we’re back for the penalty.

Snowsill belts the ball in the corner. But the fly-half has kicked it dead, not what Wales needed in such a great position

Lindelauf, Khalfaoui and Touye on for France now.
