Thread: Wales Under 17s in the Euros.

  1. #1

    Wales Under 17s in the Euros.

    Wales face hosts Hungary in their first appearance in the finals of major tournament at age group level for forty one years tonight when their Under 17s, featuring a healthy representation from Cardiff City, kick off at 7 o clock.

    I'm sure the game will be streamed somewhere - anyone got a link?

    Wouldn't shock me if that was the case for every international squad once you factor in coaches, media, physios, officials etc. This squad is also smaller than the usual senior squad

    Lots of City representation, 7 current players as well as Biancheri & Crew. Add in Swansea's Morgan and you've got 10 players who spent at least some time in our academy (that we know of!)

    City's Josh Beecher, Dylan Lawlor & Troy Perrett start alongside the poached duo of Crew & Biancheri

    Big test for them tonight against the hosts, Poland beat Ireland 5-1 in the group opener earlier. Poland are a very good side, beat England and Belgium 5-0 in the past year

    0-0 after half an hour, two great chances for Wales

    Fantastic atmosphere from the hosts, real test this

    We should be ahead, missed a great headed chance and we’ve hit the post.

    The three City lads doing well.

    Playing some good stuff, feels like the attackers could be a little sharper with some of their movement. Hatch in particular perhaps not at the same level as the others

    Ah! Another chance missed as I type, lovely ball in from Beecher

    1-0 Hungary, that's what happens when you don't take your chances! Wales completely on top and going in 1-0 down

    Re: Wales Under 17s in the Euros.

    1-0 to Hungary against the run of play - deflected shot. They’re the bigger and more powerful side, but we look more talented.

    Agree about our front three though, we’re not sharp enough up front and it was similar in the Elite qualifying round.

    I'm obviously biased, but Beecher & Lawlor look good, as does Thomas of Manchester City

    Biancheri not gotten into the game at all

    Second half not sounding so promising 🥲

    Re: Wales Under 17s in the Euros.

    Finished 3-0, Wales were competitive, but had no cutting edge.

    Difn't catch the second half but the first was reminiscent of the qualifiers, crrated plenty but not clinical enough

    Still a great experience that they'll be all the better for - you don't want youth games to define a player's career

    Interesting to see Armstrong being chosen over the one time Man City bound Benjamin.

    2-0: this could get quite messy.

    Ended 3-0. Fair to say this tournament has been a bit of a disappointment, still a great achievement to qualify and hopefully this is a good learning experience

    Didn’t Benjamin go to Man City? I thought he did.
