England head coach Jo Yapp said: “The scoreline probably didn’t reflect the game overall but France took their opportunities and we didn’t.

“They did fight hard today and we can’t fault their effort but there are certain parts of our game plan that we really need to have a look at.

“We’ll learn an awful lot from this experience.”
