FT: BELGIUM 4 - 3 WALES. Match thread

That however is a cracking goal.

Brooks should have pulled one back

Brooks had to put us back in it really, bloody led to another chance for them though.

Penalty check to someone. Var a joke as we don't know who for

The Bellamy honeymoon is over.

Aw, c’mon, this Belgium side tonight are something else in this first half hour. Not many would handle them.

Doku playing much better for his country than he does for his club.

The ref gave it didn't he? Not VAR.

Penalty decision was a joke (penalised for trying to get his hands behind his back) but has been a horror show ever since. Would like to see that offside in the build up to the penalty again, as looked blatant at the time.

He did I think, it was the VAR bloke who put the brakes on, even throwing a possible offside into the equation.

Our defending is shockingly poor.

Have Belgium slyly chucked a few more players on the pitch. Seems like they’ve got about 14 or 15 on times.

Yes he did, but the authorities started fiddling with a handball law that was never considered to be a problem until VAR came along.

You would have to go back to his game plan which clearly hasn't worked.

Bit late to even it up isn’t it?

Two of the worst penalty decisions I've seen in one game.

That was a worse penalty decision than Belgium’s.

I'm not sure any kind of game plan would work against this Belgian outfit, although it does look like Bellamy hasn't given us much of a chance with the tactics and formation. The defending for the two goals after the penalty was poor all round, plenty of ball watching.

We are missing Neco and Dan James who are two of our best players.

Why? The first was handball and the second was a foul by Sels preventing Mephan getting a header possibly on target.

I would have preferred Davies at centre-back.

Very surprised our pelanty was given and with the current rules, their pen was always going to be given, they don't look that good at the back but we are very poor

I'd have been happier if neither were given. The keeper doesn't get the ball and does impede Mepham ,but it's as bad a decision as the first. Unfortunately I think that might just wake Belgium up again but let's see.

You can never write this Welsh team off! Unlike all the donkeys over on X!

Bloody hell, come on Wales!
