Rob1981 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Only got one decent stat for this one. Wales return after 64 years smashes the previous record of 56 years which was jointly held by Egypt (1934-1990) and Norway (1938-1994). And Wales got to the quarter final in 1958 apparently. Can't remember who they played that day or who scored against them, aged 17. Nobody ever mentions it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

XuluBak Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 No Aaronson is a surprise. Not must win, but mustn't lose. Wales want to play on the counter and I expect us to play right into their hands. Not overly optimistic, hard to be with that backline, Adams and/or Turner are going to need a big game.
