France have won the 2026 Six Nations title after a high-scoring thriller against England in Paris, according to BBC reports.
The final play of the tournament saw Thomas Ramos' penalty sail through the posts to secure a record eighth Six Nations title for Les Bleus.
Ireland, who beat Scotland 43-21 earlier on Saturday, saw their dreams of celebrating the title in Dublin dashed in the final few seconds of the tournament.
France's Victory
France's 48-46 victory ensured back-to-back titles for Fabien Galthie's side, who had their Grand Slam bid ended in a remarkable 50-40 defeat by Scotland at Murrayfield last weekend.
France captain Antoine Dupont lifted the trophy in the air, with fireworks exploding around a packed Stade de France.
Reaction
Former England scrum-half Matt Dawson told BBC 5 Live, "France are worthy champions. They deserve it and showed plenty of character."
Dawson added, "The pressure moments are when special teams produce. What a fantastic tournament. It has been so good."
