Guinness Six Nations 2021 France v Scotland

France Rugby vs. Scotland. The match that should have happened in the third round a few weeks ago served as the ultimate decider over the fate of the Guinness Six Nations 2021 championship title.

How the match decides the fate of the championship title is fairly simple; if France wins the match, they will win the title, but if Scotland wins the match or if the match ended in a draw, the Welsh Rugby Union will automatically be this season's champions.

Now, the match between France and Scotland; the first half saw Scotland getting huge gains by Duhan Van Der Merwe's conversion and a penalty by Finn Russell but the French managed to claw back after a try by Brice Dulin ended the first half with 13-10.

As France continues to rack up the points in the second half in the hopes of getting this year's title, a late-game miracle pulled by Scotland ended the match with 27-23. Victory of this match goes to Scotland. Gael Fickou is named the player of the match.

WRU wins 2021 Six Nations

With Scotland won the match against France, the Welsh Rugby Union is now officially this year's champions.

Congratulations WRU for being this year's champions!

And that concludes this year's Guinness Six Nations championship. What a match this is. Despite Brexit and the ongoing global pandemic, Europe's biggest rugby championship is still going on strong and looks like we can expect more from our favorite teams next season.

See you next season!
