France hung on for a 32-21 Six Nations Round 3 victory over Scotland in Paris, after early red cards were given to visiting lock Grant Gilchrist and home prop Mohamed Haouas.

France raced out to a 19-0 lead as fly-half Romain Ntamack, wing Ethan Dumortier and full-back Thomas Ramos scored tries, with Gilchrist red carded for a high tackle on Anthony Jelonch before tighthead Haouas was sent off for a bizarre head-first charge at Ben White.

Scotland hit back as centre Huw Jones scored two tries, before Finn Russell added another to bring them within four points with 12 minutes left to play.

France then made sure of victory with a Gael Fickou try in the very final play.
