France's 73-point haul is the second highest in the history of the men's Six Nations history. England's 80 points in their victory over Italy in 2001 continues to lead the way. But it's France's biggest ever win in the Six Nations.

France captain Antoine Dupont led his side to a 73-24 rout of hosts Italy as they ran in 11 tries in an action-packed Six Nations triumph on Sunday, bouncing back in style from their one-point loss to England in their last game a fortnight ago.

France will face unbeaten Six Nations leader Ireland in a buoyant mood after thrashing Italy by a record-high 73-24 in Rome
