France 4-1 Scotland: Benjamin Pavard scores unlikely double as World Cup finalists prove too strong

Hold on. France had a free-kick a moment or two again and two players ended up on the ground in the box, Giroud and Mbappe. The referee has been advised to look at the replay, and you know what that means - it's a France penalty. Cooper adjudged to have fouled Giroud - and to rub salt into the wound, he gets booked

Crikey, how close was that! A low ball in from the right by Mbappe. Pavard is diving in at the back post and just needs to get something on it to convert, but can't quite reach

The Everton full-back really does have his work cut out, having to deal with Mbappe and Hernandez. He slides in on the latter and brings him down, earning a booking

A Mexican Wave has just made its way around the stadium, which is never a ringing endorsement for the football on display. I think it's been quite entertaining! There's been three goals in 34 minutes; what more do they want?!

Good build up play from France leads to Dembele perfectly timing his run to meet Tchouameni's lofted pass, but the angle is tight and he hooks wide of the near post

Scotland do enjoy a spell of pressure down their right hand side, but France get numbers back behind the ball and eventually win back possession after Steve Clarke's side failed to pick a way through

Now the shoe is on the other foot; how will Scotland respond? It's only a friendly, so of course the result it's that important, but they'd still love a statement win

He's done it again! Terrific play by Mbappe down the left, showing a stunning turn of pace before whipping the cross into the six-yard box, from where Pavard ducks to head home his second of the night

I think the France defender might have been watching a little bit too much of the Rugby World Cup, because that was more like a conversion than a football shot. He meets Antoine Griezmann's low pull-back from a corner and curls woefully over the bar

Two shots, one from each team, and two goals. I can't imagine that will continue

That didn't last long. Pavard equalises as he flicks on a corner at the near post, with the ball skimming off his head and clipping the woodwork on the way into the back of the net

The stadium seems stunned. To be fair, that is the first time France have ever conceded at this venue (granted, it's only their third game there). Scotland are in dream land

Wow! Out of nowhere, Billy Gilmour scores his first EVER senior goal. He tried to pull the ball back towards the penalty spot, where it's met by Camavinga, who criminally passes it straight back to the midfielder. He, in turn, sends a clinical first-time shot into the far post. Magnificent!

The debutant does well to get in front of Benjamin Pavard and claim Kylian Mbappe's cross from the left. That'll help settle some nerves

Since I wrote that, I don't think the Scots have touched the ball! France are playing around with it in their own half at the moment though and certainly haven't got in the position to hurt their opponents

The possession stats will be very favourable to Scotland right now. They've had pretty much all of the ball, though done little with it

Right, after that delay, we are finally underway!

The Scots have absolutely belted out Flower of Scotland. There's plenty of them in attendance in Lille

While we await kick-off in France, here's news from England's clash with Italy - it's not been a good start for the hosts

We'll be getting underway at 8.10 instead - kick off has been delayed due to the speed at which fans were getting into the stadium

With just a couple of minutes to go until kick-off, here's a reminder of how Scotland line-up. Eight changes from the Spain defeat
