Scotland's 20-year wait for a victory in Paris goes on after France showed glimpses of their old flair to record a first win in this year's Six Nations.

BEST PLAYERS:

France: ANTOINE DUPONT: The electric scrum-half seriously impressed in his first Six Nations start. A try assist combined with his general distribution and making 58 metres with the ball in hand made him our man of the match. He's box office.

Scotland: BLAIR KINGHORN: Stepping in for the injured Stuart Hogg, the fullback made 106 metres from his 13 carries. He also made some great kicks out of hand.

WORST PLAYERS:

France: JEFFERSON POIROT - Nobody was particularly bad for Les Bleus. However, the loosehead, who was outperformed by Scotland's Allan Dell, missed two tackles and was probably the least influential player in France's starting XV.
Scotland: GREIG LAIDLAW - Missed an easy shot at goal, created nothing, missed two tackles and conceded a turnover. He was then replaced by Ali Price after 64 minutes.
