What to read next:
Swansea City : Club football is back so we look backwards There has been a great deal of progress this season. Despite the unfortunate defeat at Burnley, the Swans capped off the week with strong performances and valuable points. Looking back on the season so far, the team has matched top teams and is playing some lovely football it is much more competitive and there appears to be a strong team spirit.
Wales 4 Iceland 1 : Cullen culls Iceland and Wales win the group Wales have won their group in the Nations League to earn promotion to League A next time around as Türkiye had the rug pulled from underneath them in Montenegro. The unlikely became the likely, and the saying ‘Let us see what happens at the end’ never more a reality. Better seedlings, games and a whole lot more is the immediate future for Wales.
Wales TEAM NEWS Cabango starts It’s the final game of this Nations League campaign for Wales later tonight in Cardiff (KO:745pm) It’s an interesting tie for a number of reasons.
Wales : Nations League, World Cup qualifiers and dates explainedThe Nations League has provided football fans with some interesting focus as opposed to meaningless friendlies which Wales especially find themselves playing during international breaks. The lack of understanding regards the Nations League (and it’s a bit of a minefield) has seen interest wavering at times.
Nations League, Türkiye v Wales : Team News It’s the crucial Nations League tie in Kayseri, Türkiye this afternoon (KO 5pm) Wales have at their disposal a squad very much capable of winning this fixture. If they do they go top of their League B group with one game to go.
Türkiye v Wales : Just two more games to go, it is very much achievableTwo big games face Wales this Saturday and on Tuesday. The first is against Türkiye at the Kaide Has stadium complex in Kayseri, a city in central Türkiye. The second with a 7:45pm Kick at home on Tuesday against Iceland. The 32,000 ish capacity at Kaide is the home of Kayserispor and Kayseri Erciyesspor, utilising the complex accordingly. The game kicks off at 5pm UK time.
Burnley 1 Swansea City 0 : Timid and listless Swans beaten at the death If anyone’s wants proof that shopping for players on low salaries in the Championship doesn’t pay off then it was evidenced today. Despite a very competent back four and keeper the rest of the team was sour and lacked any punch or awareness in controlling a football. Persistently caught offside or tripping over the ball, giving it away or relying on Myles Peart-Harris and a tired Ronald just wasn’t going to work.
