Stuart Lancaster has hailed England's Six Nations win over Wales as one of the highest points of his career.
The Red Rose wilted on their last visit to the Millennium Stadium but they roared to a 21-16 victory to kick off the Championship in style.
Anthony Watson and Jonathan Joseph scored the crucial tries in the hugely physical encounter, which lays down a major marker ahead of the World Cup.
And after England's 30-3 mauling in Cardiff two years ago, Lancaster could not hide his delight.
"I remember being interviewed after the game two years ago and that was the lowest point of my coaching career without a doubt," Lancaster said.
"We learned a lot from two years ago and drew a lot of strength from last year's performance against Wales and the way we finished the autumn series against Australia.
"This win is definitely one of the highest points because of the pressure and emotion leading up into it and getting new combinations together.
"Whether it's one points, two points, five points it's all about getting the win.
"Being 10-0 down was a big hole and we closed the gap, but that Dan Biggar drop goal gave us work to do at 16-8.
"I really feel we upped our intensity and although we took our two tries really well we probably created three or four opportunities in the second half."
Wales were outright favourites with the bookies and England were depleted by injuries.
The old rivals face each other again at the World Cup in the autumn but Lancaster denied the victory gave his side a psychological edge.
"I don't think it is really," added Lancaster. "It's all about the here and now.
"We've got four more games of Six Nations to go, as have Wales, and we've got World Cup camps to prepare for and decisions to make on squad selection.
"We've got warm-up games and there's everything to play for. The World Cup is a long way off and this was about getting the victory for that young team away from home. It's great for us in terms of belief."
