France has lost their hope of a Six Nations grand slam after they were defeated by Scotland 17-28 this morning.

Scotland took advantage of a first-half red card to France’s Mohamed Haouas to take control of the game.

Sean Maitland scored a double for Scotland and Adam Hastings extended their lead through a successful conversion.

Scotland found themselves on the score sheet again in the 66th minute when Stuart Mclnally added the side’s third converted try.


A late consolation try by France’s Charles Ollivon in the 76th minute was too little too late as Scotland hung on to come away with a win.
