England and Wales went to battle in the first-half at Twickenham on Saturday evening with four penalties from Marcus Smith giving the Red Rose a 12-0 lead at the break.
England didn't quite hit their stride but were able to capitalise on Wales' high penalty count with Smith dispatching four of his kicks when it could have been 18-0 had he scored all of his kicks.
Wales showed flashes with Alex Cuthbert looking impressive on his 50th cap but England's extra class showed as they opened up a deserved lead.
