ROME — Italy’s unwanted record in the Six Nations continued as a relieved France came away from the Stadio Olimpico with a 25-14 win in the teams’ last match on Saturday. Penaud’s try came after more sustained pressure from Italy with France having to see out the match with 14 men after hooker Camille Chat was shown a yellow card. Tito Tebaldi scored his first try for Italy but Tommaso Allan missed some crucial kicks. A scrappy start from France gifted Italy a couple of early penalties that Allan converted to give Italy a 6-0 lead. Tebaldi had earlier missed a second try when he knocked on trying to ground the ball in a tackle.
