    Wales absolutely deserve that.

    If they can hold on, not only does it give them an excellent chance of being one of four best 3rd sides, but they'd even be in with a shout a finishing 2nd (even if Italy thrashed them).

    In fairness that South Korea win against Spain was bent as ****.

    I fancy Germany to get something v Portugal. Rule number one of international football is never write off the Germans.

    I also don't think they looked anywhere near as bad as being made out. Finishing and final ball was poor yesterday but they last narrowly by an own goal to the best side in the world. No shame in that and they'll look better in games to come.

    I'd be absolutely staggered if any side didn't go through with 4 points.

    Yep.

    More chance of a side going through in 2nd with 4 points, than going out in 3rd with 4 points.

    Are Wales about to follow the typically Saints thought process of defending their narrow lead, or will they go for it and try to win by more? I'm expecting more goals, but I'm not sure who for.

    Didn't look like scoring that from the moment he placed the ball.

    Watch it again. He looks for the guy's feet and he is already falling as he hits the leg.

    I think Savage is going to wet himself with excitement in a minute.
