Wales vs Belgium, Euro 2016 quarter-final

A moment in the hotel bar at Haifa, on Israel’s Mediterranean coast, gets to the heart of why Wales have travelled from nowhere to the high peaks of the European continent in the space of two years.

The players had just beaten the Israelis 3-0 in a qualifier for these European Championships, so the guitar was fetched out and Owain Fôn Williams, then goalkeeper of Tranmere Rovers, a club propping up League Two, was joined in a rendition of Elton John’s ‘Your Song’ by Gareth Bale, the world’s most expensive footballer. When they got back to Cardiff the players asked the de facto player liaison officer Mark Evans if the Football Association of Wales would buy them a team guitar for future post-match occasions. Needless to say, the governing body obliged.
