The Welsh nation, and a few of England's traditional rivals, hailed their rugby heroes after their back-from-the-dead World Cup win at Twickenham.

The streets of Cardiff rang well into the night to the sound of youths chanting the Welsh anthem "Land Of Our Fathers", the Welsh hymn "Bread of Heaven" and "Delilah", the international hit of Welsh pop legend Tom Jones.

But Wales 28-25 win over England has been overshadowed by the growing injury list.

Assistant coach Shaun Edwards remains upbeat, despite a spate of injuries with Scott Williams (knee), Hallam Amos (shoulder), and Liam Williams (concussion).

"We could lose more, there is no doubt about that, but we just have to show that resilience we've showed so far in the competition and dust ourselves off and get on with it," Edwards said.

Wales' next game is against Fiji on October 2.
