MATCH EVENTS

1’: We’re off!

5’: Broadhead goes for goal, puts it wide.

7’: GOAL WALES!!! Neco Williams takes it himself and slots it past the keeper into the far side!

18’: Uğurcan Çakır goes down hard while catching a ball, holding his knee on the ground.

22’: Big shout for a Wales penalty but ref says Bardakcı’s tackle was clean. Bardakcı and Johnson now scrapping at each other, Brennan Johnson gets a yellow

30’: Johnson goes down but doesn’t get the penalty again, Lockyer tries to keep the chance alive but only wins a corner. Çakır is down again and that’ll probably be it for him

32’: Turkey double sub: Altay Bayındır and Yusuf Yazıcı on for Uğurcan Çakır and Abdülkadir Ömür

42’: Turkey has a sight at goal but Aktürkoğlu can’t get the shot on target and the ball sails into the stands.

43’: SAVE! Johnson’s turning shot on the long throw-in, denied by Bayındır well.

HT Wales 1-0 Turkey The Welsh have the goal they need but can they hold on? And will it matter?


46’: Turkey substitution: Zeki Çelik on for Cenk Özkacar

46’: We’re back!

49’: SAVE! Bayındır dives to his right to push away Johnson’s shot from the far corner.

51’: Özcan chests the ball to himself and volleys from distance, puts it too high.

53’: Yusuf Yazıcı carded, must have been for dissent because if it was for a foul that’d be a penalty

59’: Turkey substitution: Kenan Yıldız on for Barış Alper Yılmaz

60’: Ampadu’s shot from close range is caught comfortably.

62’: Wales substitution: David Brooks on for Nathan Broadhead

69’: PENALTY TO TURKEY!! Yildiz goes over because of a shove from Ben Davies!

70’: GOAL TURKEY!! Yusuf Yazıcı sends Ward the wrong way and scores!

72’: Zeki Çelik shoves down Connor Roberts from behind

74’: Sarı grazes the top of the crossbar with a show from a long long way out.

80’: Wales substitution: Daniel James on for Harry Wilson

82’: Kerem Aktürkoğlu carded for dissent
