Looks like Wales have just gone to Qatar it the holiday. Have they just spent all their prep time playing golf?

On the touchline so screams of agony fully heard on microphone too!

It's the screaming when they haven't been touched that really does my head in.

They'll have plenty of time for golf in a few days time.

USA play with some intensity, deservedly in front, Wales will need to change something in the second half to get anything from this game.

Think this is what you meant to say?

Hopefully they’ll play like this against England.

Been in airport and just boarding, so reliant on forum and live-text.
Just seen this, can you hear it and if so how do you answer?

We’ve had the first rendition of the ‘I believe that we will win' chant from the USA fans.

Is it the worst chant in football?

Sound really isn't that clear so you can't make out songs, it's weirdly mushed. Sorry.

Snooty, Orikoru?

The view that footballing lesser nations are somehow not worthy of a place at the world cup or a half decent ranking.

They are footballers, not politicians.
This arm band discussion has got so much more publicity due to the 'will they, won't they' saga than if they'd just been allowed to wear them.
They've made their point, now let them get on with the job of playing football.

Statement of fact. Their ranking based on recent wins against Chepstow Town and The Dog and Duck Reserves.

You prove the point.

If you feel so strongly about Qatar, you should boycott watching all games. Bet you don't

Apparently a number of Welsh fans were turned away for wearing rainbow hats.

 

[Orikoru]

Typical snooty English attitude tbf.

You what??

So you think Iran are legitimately the 20th best team in the world then? You don't think their ranking might be a bit high due to having no good teams to face in their qualifying section at all?

Shame on the Liverpool and Netherlands captain.

Nothing to do with worthiness I just think the rankings are garbage.

When was the last time they played either Kuwait or Afghanistan?

In qualifying they only had to beat UAE, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon to get though. ??‍ Not exactly powerhouses.
