Plenty of signs that Wales can get in behind this Belgian defence.

The quality of the Belgians going forward however really showing.

What a rocket, unstoppable. Best thing about it is that you could foresee it happening as the pass was laid off for him.

No prob ageing, I can imagine regarding the put downs. I personally had no problem with the Wales players celebrating video. It's all banter and pride for your country, mixed with what I like to believe is friendly rivalry.

Down to a wonderful strike by Nainggolan, no shame in that. And still every chance of getting back into the game.

I wonder how many England players jumped up and down dancing and screaming when that goal went in?

Loved the shot of that little Welsh kid mouthing the F bomb at that near-miss.

Nainggolan ball watching, should have been picking up Williams not standing there watching him score, and de-bruin, was on the post, if he stayed on the post he'd save that, poor discipline

I hate to say it but whatever happens this is a sensational performance from the Taffs. Lightl years beyond Hodgson's England.

Another corner nainggolan just standing there picking nobody up. He might as well pull up a chair and watch the corners, that's Belgiums problem, no leader on the pitch to tear into him for daydreaming when defending set pieces

It's weird because generally i don't really give a f*** about the Scots or the Welsh but yeah, when that went in I jumped up and celebrated (I'm in a bar).....guess I'm more of a Brit than I thought. :oops:

The defence is no good. Everytime Wales go forward Denayer is back pedalling and they can't defend corners. Both Lukaku's have been ****.

Belgium are ****ing appalling at the back and nobody wants to take responsibility for marking at corners.

I wish Lukaku played like this against West Ham...

The Belgian goal was one of the best in the competition so far , I thought that was going to be it but after Williams' header we're back in it and he could have had another just before half time - to be level with one of the competition's favourites is something Wales can be really proud of , Courtois is some keeper , he made a wonderful save from Taylor who possibly should have done better .

How ****ing **** is Lukaku.

The only 2 goals he scored were against a West Ham goalkeeper.
