France turn on the afterburners late on to scorch past Romania

France recovered from a shaky start to defeat Romania by 38-11 tonight at the London Olympic Stadium in tonight's Rugby World Cup clash.

Les Bleus who are in Ireland's group, made it two wins from two tonight to go top of pool D to hold a five point advantage at the summit.

They were able to get their bonus point thanks to Sofiane Guitoune and Yannick Nyanga before half-time and Guitoune, Wesley Fofana and Gael Fickou with three tries in the second '40.

Valentin Ursache got Romania's only try seven minutes from time.

Ireland now face Romania on Sunday, with France next in action against Canada, before Joe Schmidt's side go head-to-head with Les Bleus in the final round of the pool.
