    ...Belarus 2 - Cymru 3 -- Bale (5) (69) (94.) W. C. Q.

    (match held in Kazan Russia 1000 miles from Belarus!)

    Brilliant performance from a very depleted Welsh Squad.

    MInus 10 -yes 10 players due to injury - suspension - Covid (inc. Kieffer.) Minus another 3 due to Visa issues.

    Match played in Kazan Russia as teams from U K cannot enter Belarus by air because of sanctions against Belarusian Government.

    Watch Bale's second penalty - stunning!

    Not a good result for the USA last time against El Salvador but still very excited about the team. Taking on Canada later but it clashes with a couple of other things I might be watching so we'll see haha.

    Also hoping Northern Ireland can make it, an Italy win today would help. England ofcourse looking good, will catch parts of their game. Good luck to Wales.

    Looked a bit soft to me, unless you meant the actual penalty shot which went straight down the middle. Goalie sold himself with the stuttering run up which is pathetic in my book. Good win though but thought his first penalty was miles better.

    totally agree. In reality (and the in cool light of day!) it was a horrendous second penalty - think I was swayed by the fact it was a 94th minute winner for us.

    Had Keiffer been playing think we may have got 3 or 4 - but 3 points is three points!

    Played for England Walking Football Community vs Wales yesterday. Great occasion, won convincingly.

    Apart from the National Anthem - outsung by people singing a much better National Anthem. I wish England had something similar.

    not sure what language is on the sheep shearing tape - definitely not Welsh - Swedish ??

    SD Do you know how to make a Welshman sleep - just ask him how many sexual partners he's had .......(think about it)

    National Anthem of Wales is about the praise/support/love of the country and the people - just what a National Anthem should be -- well worth reading the words in English.
    Think Flower of Scotland is similarly patriotic..
