Wales - Ukraine was great game, unfortunately outcome of it wasn't that I wanted. Yarmolenko mistake which ended with an own goal was huge and it would be difficult to justify it - it's not that case when ball accidentally hits player.
Ukraine had much more moments, but Henessey was like a wall today. Davies also did a lot to not let Ukraine to score.
Congrats to Wales, reach World Cup after so many years is big achievement for them.
I'm also very sorry for Ukraine because they were so close to winning this match and qualifying for the World Cup.
They played really well but this time they were unlucky.
In such uncertain matches usually a small detail or move decides the winner, and Wales again had Bale who played that crucial move that decided the winner.
Bale has saved Wales so many times that they should make a monument to him
However, I am also glad for Wales to play in the World Cup again after such a long time.
We have to congratulate Wales and especially to Bale for being a hero in bringing Wales to the World Cup.
Wales has this moment because they have been absent from the world cup for 64 years to be able to play in the biggest tournament of football, the world cup. although if we talk about the world cup final the possibility is very small, but playing in this event is certainly an achievement in itself.
Why did Bale bring Wales to the World Cup? I thought it was Ukrainian player Andriy Yarmolenko who did it. But to congratulate him on taking Wales to the World Cup would be foolish. By the way, Wales now have a slim chance of getting out of the group. They need to beat the USA and Iran, or not lose to anyone in the group.
When I say that Bale, as the best player in Wales, is most deserving of their place in the World Cup, then I state the obvious fact.
I don't mean only this match but also the previous match of these qualifiers, like between Wales and Austria where Bale also decided the winner with his two goals.
In all the previous matches of these qualifiers, Bale was the most important and best player in Wales and he helped one average national team, such as Wales, to go to the World Cup.
As for the World Cup, I don’t think the USA and Iran are better teams than Wales and I think Wales will have a good chance of passing the group and qualifying for further competition.
Wales have been very good in the last 2 European Championships, played in the semi-finals of 2016 and participated in the 2021 European Championships, which shows that they are a good team.
