Wasps recorded their first away win of the English Premiership season after beating Gloucester 30-23 in an entertaining encounter at Kingsholm on Sunday.
The London club took a 24-14 lead into half-time, but three Greig Laidlaw penalties in quick succession took Gloucester to the brink of a comeback, only for Wasps to rally at the last.
The victory left Wasps in sixth place in the table, three points below the play-off places.
"I'm really pleased to get this monkey off our back as you have to win on the road and beat the sides below you in the table if you want to stay in the mix," said Wasps director of rugby Dai Young.
"We put in a poor performance at Exeter (losing 31-15), but apart from that we haven't been a million miles away."
Tom Varndell, Christian Wade and Nathan Hughes scored Wasps' tries, with Andy Goode converting all three and kicking two penalties. Elliot Daly also kicked a late penalty.
Gloucester scored two tries through Jonny May and Matt Kvesic, with Laidlaw converting both and adding three penalties.
"We were in control for the first 37 minutes, but I was really disappointed with our second-half performance," Young added. "We knew Gloucester would come back at us, but we turned over the ball seven times at first phases.
"We found a way to win as we were composed in the last five minutes, which was pleasing as we've thrown away a lot of games at that stage in the past."
