2021:
Wales captain Gareth Bale set up Aaron Ramsey
and Connor Roberts to score for a 2-0 victory over Turkey in their Group A match at Baku’s Olympic Stadium on Wednesday to take a big step towards qualifying for the European Championship knockout stages.
Ramsey failed to convert two chances early in the first half but scored just before halftime when he made a run through the middle to chest down Bale’s perfect ball over the defence and slip it past the goalkeeper.

Wales could have doubled the lead at the hour mark when Bale was tripped by Zeki Celik and awarded a penalty,
but the Welsh skipper skied his effort after a stuttering run up.
Wales scored right at the death in injury time when a corner was played short and Connor Roberts was on hand to divert a Bale pass past goalkeeper Ugurcan Cakir to seal the victory.
“I’m delighted with the win. We fought hard, we worked our socks off like we always do,” Bale said after the game, adding that his contributions compensated for the penalty miss.
Fight:
The EURO 2020 match between Turkey and Wales
at Baku Olympic Stadium was undoubtedly one of the most heated matches of the tournament so far.
It was a crucial contest for both sides as Turkey came into this contest on the back of a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Italy, while Wales had secured only a draw against Switzerland.
With the outcome of this match so crucial with respect to the standings in Group A, both sides gave it all on Wednesday.
Score:
Turkey 0-2 Wales: Euro 2020 – as it happened
Aaron Ramsey and Connor Roberts got the goals in a thrilling, nervy victory that will almost certainly earn Wales a berth in the last 16
