Wales coach Warren Gatland predicted 'something special' from his side ahead of their Rugby World Cup warm-up against England, and they delivered a commanding second half performance to claim a 20-9 victory in Cardiff.

"I was a little bit apprehensive this morning as I wasn't quite sure how things were going to go. I know the players have been working hard and I was looking for a performance and it was a good start today," he told Amazon Prime. England led 9-6 at halftime but were denied more points despite numerous entries into the Wales 22, in part due to their own wastefulness in possession but also some excellent cover defence from Wales.
"I thought Aaron Wainwright was excellent, Jac Morgan was excellent, I thought our two second rows were outstanding," Gatland said.
