England coach Stuart Lancaster admits that he is "gutted" following Saturday's 30-3 defeat to Wales in their Six Nations decider.

England coach Stuart Lancaster has admitted that he is "gutted" following Saturday's defeat to Wales in their Six Nations decider.

Lancaster's side were hammered 30-3 at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff on Saturday as defending champions Wales pipped them to the title.

When asked how he felt after the match, the England boss told BBC Sport: "Gutted.

"The start of the second half wasn't good enough and Wales thoroughly deserve the win. I don't think it was a psychological thing. Wales played well and we didn't turn up and we didn't match their physicality."

England headed into the match looking for their first Grand Slam since 2003.
