France did not quite hit the heights of their Dublin demolition last weekend, but Les Bleus did enough on a nervy night in Paris to clinch a second Six Nations title in four years – and kill off England’s faint hopes of a trophy-lift in Cardiff.

France hold off stern Scotland challenge to clinch Six Nations title in Paris - Scotland were unfortunate to go in 16-13 behind at the break before Les Bleus powered home to a bonus-point victory and the championship.

France have won the Six Nations after beating Scotland 35-16 in Paris. England pushed the championship battle to the final game after earlier destroying Wales with a record 68-14 win in Cardiff. But Les Bleus sealed victory in front of a home crowd in a packed Stade de France to lift their first title since 2022 and only their second since 2010.
