Phillipe Saint-Andre: Scotland's time is coming

Phillipe Saint-Andre says that Scotland will soon beat a top team following their close Six Nations clash yesterday.

France head coach Phillipe Saint-Andre has said that Scotland will soon beat a top team following their close Six Nations clash yesterday.

Scotland gave Les Bleus a scare early on and enjoyed a 10-0 lead before France clawed it back and finished with a 23-17 victory.

"The difference between winning and losing is in small details," Saint-Andre said. "When you look at Scotland's last four games, in the World Cup they lost in the last minute to Argentina and the try by England was in the 77th minute.

"Against England again in the Six Nations, Scotland created four or five opportunities but one turnover and England won the game. And against Wales they had control of the first half and then they had a yellow card and Wales scored two tries.

"We just said 'we're worried, we hope it wouldn't be us'. I'm sure Scotland will very soon beat a fantastic team because they have some fantastic players."

France next face Ireland in their rescheduled clash at the Stade de France.
