Group A: Turkey, Italy, Wales, Switzerland.

Azerbaiijan have been part of UEFA ever since their independence in 1992. They have the right to host this tournament as England or Germany, end of. There should be no outrage.

Why is it all you seem to talk about is racism etc?

 

[duncs pigeon]

Who’s actually outraged ? I was booked to be out there, but it became impossible with the travel restrictions. Most Wales fans would have preferred somewhere closer to home and easier to get to, but I’ve not heard any complaint beyond that.

The only ones I have heard moaning are those who dont like the format this year. Whilst Im not a great fan of it, I dont mind the change for something different. Covid hasnt helped with travel though.

I’m chalking that up as a hard earned, well deserved draw with a little bit of help from Lady Luck and Lady VAR. The Turkey match was always going to be the crucial one when you’re not the best team in the Group . Wales up and running.

 

[Billy Dean]

Italy probably taking 9 points in that group

All going to come down to who leathers Turkey more impressively

Plenty of twists and turns to come in the group. The next matches will show the true level of Italy and Turkey perhaps

I wouldn’t call it racism so much as a Western Europe centric attitude. “It’s bad because it’s too far away for us”

It’s just a bit werid this format for me. Turkey V Wales will probably have 30k fans there most chanting for turkey? Now granted that happens for the home nation, but normally there is only one home nation!

Like I said, they are trying something different, might have worked pre covid and having to remove venues hasnt helped.

Turks, no matter what flavour, supports Turks in general.

Can't lump them together, Azeris are Turks but they're not predisposed to support them in football. Nevertheless, it'll be a welcome sight to see an ambiance at a football match after what has felt like training sessions for too long

Made the most of the very few chances they had, deserved is obviously subjective but a team that dominates typically deserve to win in my experience

Shame really but Schar with just a nightmare of a match, Petkovic does not impress me with team selection or subs. Sefervoic reminded the Suisse that however touted he may be in Portugal he has sadly been a serial bottler for Le Nati - I hope to never see him start again, Gavranovic showed in 6 minutes the sort of eye for goal Seferovic could not muster for 84 min

Embolo, on the other hand, love love love the player - hampered by injuries, fans have viewed him as on the precipice of ascension to world class but you saw why he generates so much excitement. He has everything - size, strength, speed, intelligence & creativity. Hopefully he can stay healthy

Was incredibly emotional to see our beautiful anthem sang at a premier football tournament.

Getting a draw against a top top Switzerland team was superb, I fancy our chances against Turkey and I feel like we can maybe do something against Italy.

But to be honest, I'm just glad we're here.

 

[McMagicT]

Good luck to all you Welsh lads later on, and best wishes to all of you supporters, come home safely.
From an Englishman through & through!

 

[TheBigIguana]

Wales are almost certainly through if they win this. On the other side Turkey are in big trouble if they don't. Hopefully it sets up a cracker.

 

[4737carlin]

Come on Wales!!

Even if your not bothered our greatest player in most peoples living memories is Welsh!! As good a reason as any to want a home nation victory

 

[wm02]

Hoping Wales can do it here
