Wales head coach Steve Tandy speaking to BBC One: “I definitely feel like that [felt like a step forward].
“I thought we had moments in the game, our discipline was a lot better. I thought the set-piece was excellent, I thought we could’ve scored a few more tries.
“If you look at the athletes France have, if we kick a little too far, or if there’s an offload, they come alive. You have to tip your hat to France and where they are as a team.
“For us it’s transitioning, we’re not where we want to be ultimately we’re at this point in our journey but it’s looking at where we have improved and keep building.
“It’s our job as a team to get the support here. The general public has been amazingly supportive, I think they understand what part of the journey we’re on.
“The only thing I can say is the effort the boys put in as a young group, they love the support and the connection to our community and our nation.”
