Am I missing something here, since when were Belgium a top side?

Yeah, not only buzzing their socks off, but working on winning. The England team appeared entitled in comparison.

Weird when England players where filled with lecister and spurs players who all season got praised for working hard etc.

I believe wearing the 3 Lions is a curse. You could have put the England shirt on the Welsh team tonight and they wouldn't have played so well

They are ranked 2nd in the world. Might be a false ranking(well, it clearly is), but they still win lots of games.

They do have some of the best players in club football in just about every single position.

Chris Coleman should be the next England manager

Maybe replace them, post-Brexit, with a native English species. Stoats or weasels will fit on the patch with only slight modification...

Their manager had a plan and their players believed in it - it so plainly wasn't the story with England despite what they might say.

Iceland were certainly better than England

Congrats to Wales. Epic performance from them. No reason why they can't beat Portugal who have been dodgy the whole tournament.

If Wales can have a dragon, maybe England can have three unicorns.

Will Hal Robson-Kanu still be "unemployed" after this tournament?

rids57 · 1 Jul 2016 at 22:47

I don't think I've ever been prouder to be Welsh - many whiskies are being had tonight.

+1

Having watched my team fail, it's nice to see Wales do what they are doing.

What a fantastic result for Wales, well done. How utterly embarrassing for England that a team, that hasn't qualified for a major tournament since 1986??? Has gone further than our lowly England haha.

And quite how Belgium are number 2 in the world is truly beyond me, I'd put the likes of Chile and Argentina well above Belgium.

e36Adz · 1 Jul 2016 at 23:06

Well played Wales, one of the best games of the tournament that so far. Played with unbelievable heart and showed they had the quality to score some brilliant goals. I really hope they trounce Portugal...

Belgiums defence is ravaged by injury in fairness to them.
