The National’s Sport cover for the Monday, November 17 issue, featuring Gareth Bale, Aaron Ramsey and Wales holding down Belgium, Fifa’s fourth-ranked side in the world, to a goalless draw on Sunday in Euro 2016 qualifying in Brussels.
It was, writes Richard Jolly, a major point earned for the Welsh:
“This match will not go down in Welsh football folklore just yet. In six games’ time, though, it might.
“As every self-respecting Wales fan knows, and laments, they have not played at the finals of any major tournament since the 1958 World Cup.
“If their long wait ends in Euro 2016 and after 58 years, the hardest of hard-earned points must rank as a major factor.”
