I don't think many would have had to deal with as much as we did both in the build-up and duration of the tournament:

- CEO departs
- Manager temporarily steps away due to front-page circumstances in his personal life
- 30 plus degrees in Baku, an away game in Baku, an away game in Rome, an away game in Amsterdam.
- Arguably a harsh sending off of Ampadu
- A ref who harshly books Moore and Rodon then takes no action when Moore fouled before they score their second. Harshly sends off Wilson too.

Despite this, and recognising we were second best yesterday and disappointingly let our frustrations show, we achieved with qualification from the group and the FAW did their best to make sure the whole of Wales was reached out to in order to again use a tournament to build future success.

Even in tough circumstances we might have been expected to beat Turkey, lose to Italy (currently 7th in the world) and Denmark (currently 10th in the world) so when looking back on the tournament I'll be focusing on the Switzerland game as a marker of our time in Euros 2020. Drawing against a side like Switzerland (13th in the world, reached tournament football in 7 of last 8 tournaments before this and qualified from group stages in 4 of those) shows how well we did and also sets out maybe not the the direct next step but the future goal to work to.

We come out of this tournament at a bit of a crossroads knowing that the squad has a higher floor than 2016 but a lower ceiling and not knowing which players will push that ceiling up again. Will need patience and good supportive crowd to help us knowing there is so much to play for over the next 9 months plus 2 day but yes, definitely proud of this team
