Allez les bleus – Scotland disallowed a late try

Ahead of what has become a controversial victory at Murrayfield the French fans were a colourful sight in Edinburgh on Saturday.

Scotland was denied a last minute try by the Television Match Official TMO as it proved impossible for the TMO Brian MacNeice to find any good angle to award the points. The on pitch referee Nic Berry first decided that the ball had not touched the ground.
The match result was Scotland 16 – France 20.
