Redcanuck Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Even with calmiditous penalty attempt this has to be the best I have seen Bale play in quite awhile.
Azeem Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Turkey were poor with their passing in the final third
Danny Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 That game was there for Turkey to win, nothing up front, Wales defended well but were pinned back for 45 minutes. You’d think they’d need more against better sides
Subscriber Dan+ Posted June 16, 2021 Subscriber Posted June 16, 2021 The fact that second half is their best half yet sums Turkey's tournament up. I'm as guilty as anybody for saying they were a dark horse. They've been revolting. Wales are still a pain in the arse
Ploughendplonker Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 I thought Wales played well, solid defensively and often looked dangerous on the counter. If they could clinch second, I'd back them in the second round (it looks like they would play Russia, assuming they clinch second in their group).
Lucas Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Where did the hype with Turkey come from? Fuck me, they are gash. Wales should have finished it well before they actually did.

Leo Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 No way was that a penalty and typical of Savage to condone it.
Chaaay AFC Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 Still such a shame Aaron Ramsey just could never get over his injury problems. Would've been one of the best midfielders of the last decade, such an incredible player. Will always be one of my favourites, so good today!
Dave Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 I have been so disappointed with Turkey this tournament.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted June 16, 2021 Subscriber Posted June 16, 2021 Thought that was a cracking game to be fair. Both teams looking to hit the front early. Bit of a lull in the second half but a well-deserved win for Wales and they could have had at least 1-2 more. The spell after Bale's penalty miss just show that missing a penalty is one of those things that give your opponent a massive shot in the arm. Not just a missed opportunity for Wales but led to a sustained spell of pressure from Turkey afterwards who were visibly lifted. Glad to see Wales almost certainly through to the knockouts.

Think the Euro 2016 squad will be classed as better unless we manage to do something on par in this tournament. Late to this as my old man was late from work and not long finished watching our game. Great result and honestly thought we deserved it really. We could have won this game much earlier (Bale's penalty was horrific and has probably met Baggio's ball in space by now) and despite the Turkish pressure, Ward didn't really have to do that much. Solid defending and good counter attacking which, if the final ball was better, could have been more great chances. We're going to get slapped by Italy, but the job is more or less done now.

Wales should have finished it well before they actually did. They've got quite a few good players to be fair and they've been in good form going into it. They've completely flopped in the tournament though. It didn't help having Italy away first that earlier was awful.
Michael Posted June 16, 2021 Posted June 16, 2021 I'm chuffed for the Welsh, this was a big win for them. Even if they lose to Italy in their final group match, they will still probably qualify.
