Wales captain Sam Warburton has said that Friday night's Six Nations defeat to England is not a disaster and will have no bearing on their clash at the World Cup in September.
England found themselves 10-0 down early on but scored 13 unanswered second-half points to help them earn their first win in Cardiff since 2011.
Warburton wrote in the Telegraph: "We are not down and out. Yes, it is obviously hugely disappointing to have lost to England at home in the first match of this Six Nations campaign, but it is not the long-term catastrophe some are making it out to be.
"It certainly has no relevance to the Rugby World Cup later this year when we are in the same Pool as England. We are not even thinking about that. We will come into camp during the summer and start thinking about that competition then."
Wales travel to face Scotland on Sunday.
