Scotland Club International put in some hard graft tonight at Old Anniesland, but were turned over by a very powerful France Fédérale team, 30-3.Centre, Jack Steele, the only player to play for the host club, Glasgow Hawks, scored the only points for the home team with a penalty on 46 minutes.For France the stars of the show were stand-off Julien Lavie, who slotted three penalties and two conversions and man-of-the-match, Anthony Potente, who led the pack well and scored a try.Scotland Club International head coach, Phil Leck, said: “Unfortunately, we were the architects of our own downfall tonight. It was a very tough game to play and we’re concerned about a few decisions made.”We didn’t keep possession for more than three phases and that meant we struggled.However, the players put in 100% and dug deep for every minute of the match.”In the second period, scrum-half Peter Jericevich added some extra pace and created a few opportunities with some quick thinking. Also winger Craig Gossman and lock, Murray Douglas defended as though their lives depended on it throughout the match.However, despite some good territory in the first half and the injection of pace in the second-half, the Scots were unable to convert chances into points.Also on the score-board for France this evening were full-back Remi Lamarque with a try and a conversion and replacement prop, Fabien Dupuy. Run of play:France scored the first points of the match, three minutes into the game when stand-off Lavie kicked a penalty. 0-3A prolonged period followed where both sides took turns at line-outs and scrums, as the set-piece featured heavily.
