Wales thrash England to retain 6N title

Rugby Union: A superb Wales performance gave the 2012 winners another year with the trophy as they crushed England 30-3 in Cardiff.

After a breathless first half that ended 9-3 in the home side's favour, two Alex Cuthbert tries meant that the Six Nations trophy was staying in Wales for a second year running.

England, who were in contention for the Grand Slam coming into the game, saw those hopes obliterated as their only points came from the boot of Owen Farrell, who missed a few as well.

But after a great comeback from the terrible Autumn tests, Wales regained their title, showing that they really are the best international rugby team in Europe.
