Ben Youngs came off the bench to make England rugby history - but Marcus Smith emerged as the saviour as England escaped to a scrappy victory.
Youngs’ 115th appearance took him past Jason Leonard as the nation’s most-capped player and the prop legend was in the 81,269 crowd to applaud his achievement.
For much of a stop-start Six Nations game there was little else to cheer as Wales were pinged eight times in the first half and Smith kicked England 12 points clear.
